V-79-57344-33861 - Unable to acquire device for the specified pool and media

I have several Bacup Exec Version 12 servers.

The backup is being done to a backup to disk folder. The backup completes fine.
But on a restore, I get the message V-79-57344-33861 - Unable to acquire device for the specified pool and media

So, essentially I have no backups. Backing up to tape and restoring to tape works fine.

I need this fixed ASAP

Hi Roger

What is the overwrite protection period on your backup to disk folder?

Doug.

Protection Level

Overwrite protection level is set to zero hours.

I overwrite this once a week. It has no trouble writing, I just can't read anything.

Thanks
