My Bacula configuration won't write to any labeled volume, as long as it's outside of /tmp. When the SD is configured to write to /tmp however, everything works flawlessly.

[herpderp@neuromediator2 home]$ ls -lah
total 8.0K
drwxr-xr-x.  4 root     root       34 Feb 22 15:01 .
dr-xr-xr-x. 17 root     root     4.0K Feb 22 15:27 ..
drwxr-xr-x.  3 bacula   tape       20 Feb 22 15:03 bacula
drwx------. 14 herpderp herpderp 4.0K Feb 22 17:02 herpderp

I set the proper permissions to let Bacula write to a specific directory, yet without success. The error message I get is below:

It's obvious that the listing says

Device is BLOCKED waiting to create a volume for:
 Pool:        File

I was able to resolve my problem by labeling another volume using that pool.
