Hello..
I have problem with HP Ultrium 215 and bacula. 
I use FreeBSD 5.4 

Storage device is configured as:
Device {
  Name = HP_ULTRIUM_215
  Description = "HP ULTRIUM 215"
  Media Type = LTO
  Archive Device = /dev/sa0
  AutomaticMount = yes;               # when device opened, read it
  AlwaysOpen = yes
  RemovableMedia = yes
  Offline On Unmount = no
  Hardware End of Medium = no
  BSF at EOM = yes
  Backward Space Record = yes
  Backward Space File = yes
  Forward Space Record = yes
  Forward Space File = yes
  Fast Forward Space File = no
  TWO EOF = yes
}


I try without this option:
 Backward Space Record = yes
  Backward Space File = yes
  Forward Space Record = yes
  Forward Space File = yes
,too.

All is ok when I testing this configuration with btape.  

When I run bacula -- backup is done perfectly, but always when
machine power fail, I get this information:
Cannot find any appendable volumes.
Please use the "label"  command to create a new Volume for:
    Storage:      HP_ULTRIUM_215
    Media type:   LTO
    Pool:         Tasma_dzienna

The Volume Status is set to "Error" even than the backup isn`t run when
power fail. 

When I set Volume Status to "Append" i get:

01-Aug 14:35 strong: Volume "dzienna_3" previously written,
moving to end of data.
01-Aug 18:43 strong: main-job.2005-07-31_01.05.01 Error: Unable
to position to end of data on device "/dev/sa0". ERR=dev.c:888 read
+error on /dev/sa0. ERR=Input/output error.

and many messages from SCSI  controller.

I suppose that bacula rewind tape to the end and still try seek End of Data
so controller crash.   
  
Fortunatelly I still can restore jobs from tape.
  
What can I do for this ? How set manually End of Data at the last or previous
jobs writen on tape ? Why Volume Status is set to Error (
even than bacula didn`t run any jobs when power fail) ? 

P.s sorry for my English
