As long as you specify the name of the autochanger rather than the name of the device, it *should* use the drive number you specify. If this is not the case, please open a bug report. Note, using the autochanger name allows the SD to use any device in that autochanger. This is a change from 1.36.x where one always specified the device name. > > > > > > Now it properly handles multiple drives but now I > > > > > no longer has a way to tell bacula-sd to unload the drive so I can > > > > > change the magazine. > > > > > > > > > > [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/opt/bacula # echo update slots storage=TL892 > > > > > drive=1|./bconsole Connecting to Director riker:9101 > > > > > 1000 OK: riker-dir Version: 1.37.38 (04 September 2005) > > > > > Enter a period to cancel a command. > > > > > update slots storage=TL892 drive=1 > > > > > Using default Catalog name=MyCatalog DB=bacula > > > > > Connecting to Storage daemon TL892 at riker.intra.techwiz.ca:9103 > > > > > ... 3306 Issuing autochanger "slots" command. > > > > > Device "TL892" has 10 slots. > > > > > Connecting to Storage daemon TL892 at riker.intra.techwiz.ca:9103 > > > > > ... 3301 Issuing autochanger "loaded drive 0" command. > > > > > 3302 Autochanger "loaded drive 0", result is Slot 6. > > > > > 3307 Issuing autochanger "unload slot 6, drive 0" command. > > > > > 3306 Issuing autochanger "list" command. > > > > > Catalog record for Volume "FUL013" is up to date. > > > > > ... > > > > > > > > > > Why do I have to specify the drive when it ignores it and goes for > > > > > the first drive anyway ? > > > > > > > > > > It was talk about some auto changer move commands to be added but > > > > > when I looked in > > > > > http://www.bacula.org/dev-manual/Bacula_Console.html I dind't find > > > > > any. > > > > > > > > > > Tonight I just restarted bacula to get it to rescan properly but I > > > > > don't think everyone can do that. -- Best regards, Kern ("> /\ V_V ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: Power Architecture Resource Center: Free content, downloads, discussions, and more. http://solutions.newsforge.com/ibmarch.tmpl _______________________________________________ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users
