Hello, I user bacula 1.32f - yeah I know, that this is quite old, but it is really working fine for long now.
Everythings was ok, backup is running every day, no errors, everything is fine. Now I wanted to restore a file. But I always get the same error: 17-Aug-2005 16:25 SERVER-sd: RestoreFiles_CLIENT.2005-08-17_16.23.33 Fatal error: Open device /dev/st0 volume Tape-4-0001 failed, ERR=dev.c:261 stored: unable to open device /dev/st0: ERR=Input/output error 17-Aug-2005 16:25 SERVER-dir: RestoreFiles_CLIENT.2005-08-17_16.23.33 Error: Bacula 1.32f-4 (24Jan04): 17-Aug-2005 16:25 The settings for the restore are ok - there is not really something that can be done wrongly. Whats the problem? A few weeks ago I added a new client, maybe that can be the source of my problem. But i can't hardly believe that that action causes this big problem. The rights and so on is ok, otherwise the normal daily backup does not work. Here is the main part of bacula-sd.conf: Device { Name = Tape # Media Type = DDS-4 Changer Device = /dev/sg2 Label media = yes; Archive Device = /dev/st0; Changer Command = "/etc/bacula/scripts/mtx-changer %c %o %S %a" AutomaticMount = Yes; # when device opened, read it Autochanger = Yes; # needed for automatic eject AlwaysOpen = no; RemovableMedia = yes; RandomAccess = no; TWO EOF = yes; # Backward Space Record = no; } As you can see, there is a autoloader attached at /dev/sg2, the tape is changed every day automatically. When I do a restore, nothing happens with the tape drive, no tape is loaded. I inserted in the mtx-changer-script some debug output - but it seems, that that script is never executed. So, I am really close to a big crash in my brain, why it is not working here. Maybe anyone of you nice bacula enthusiastics can help me to solve this problem?
