Hello,

A RunBeforeJob script could mount the device with a simple mount
command. It could also tell if the drive was inserted by testing whether
or not the mountpoint existed. A RunAfterJob could unmount the device
just as easily. Of course, if multiple drives were being used it would
be neccessary to always insert the devices in the correct order so that
the device with a particular bacula volume label was at the correct
device node and mountpoint.
A better approach would be for the RunBeforeJob script to read the
bacula volume label from all inserted devices, find the mountpoint of
the device containing the desired label, mount it, and then create a
symlink to the mountpoint. The bacula job would use the symlink as its
ArchiveDevice. I have not tried this, and I'm not sure if the
RunAfterJob script could then figure out which device to unmount.
Unfortunately there is no RunStorageBeforeJob-Command.
Since Director and Storage are not on the same maschine here, a
RunBeforeJob-script has to do this stuff remote on another maschine.
