It does block the storage device. It prevents the storage device from automounting the next usable tape. I have automated marking the last tape as 'Full', and I want to further automate unmounting it and unloading it from the tape drive so that when I come in on Monday I can just eject the magazine and remove the used tapes, shuffle in tapes, reinsert the magazine and update slots. After which the next time a backup would occur bacula would happily figure out what volume it can use that is available and request it be loaded into the drive and mount it for use. As it stands, it looks like I can automate the umounting and unloading, but I'll manually have to load a drive and mount it from bconsole to clear the block flag. Is there a better way to accomplish what I'm trying to do? Just a way to say 'I'm done w/ my umount stuff, feel free to manage the device now' and walk away? -- Jesse Keating GameHouse -- Systems Engineer ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Discover Easy Linux Migration Strategies from IBM.
