Hopefully this info will be helpful to someone. I'm installing bacula for the first time. I am using version 1.36.3. I have a HP A4853 DLT Library and a HP DLT7000 drive. I was able to use the changer to load tapes, get the status, etc, but it would not unload the drive. In this situation, I need to issue the command "mt eject" before I could unload the drive. I modified the file mtx-changer to include
MT=mt (the block for unload is now) unload) # echo "Doing mtx -f $ctl unload $slot $drive" # # enable the following line if you need to eject the cartridge # mt -f $device offline if test x$slot = x; then ${MT} eject ${MTX} -f $ctl unload else $MT eject ${MTX} -f $ctl unload $slot $drive fi ;; Everything with the changer and drive seems to be working now. Hope this info can help somebody and maybe be incorporated by the developers Chris ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is Sponsored by the Better Software Conference & EXPO September 19-22, 2005 * San Francisco, CA * Development Lifecycle Practices Agile & Plan-Driven Development * Managing Projects & Teams * Testing & QA Security * Process Improvement & Measurement * http://www.sqe.com/bsce5sf _______________________________________________ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users
