Morning... I have a DDS-3 streamer without an autoloader. So I'm asked to change tapes frequently. To prevent interaction through the bconsole I want Bacula to spit out the old tape and request the new tape - then automount it and be happy.
So far I get the old tape spit out. I get an email which tape is needed. I insert the new tape. But the storage daemon does not poll it. This is my device configuration in the storage daemon's configuration file: Device { Name = Streamer Media Type = DDS-3 Archive Device = /dev/nst0 AutomaticMount = yes; AlwaysOpen = yes; RemovableMedia = yes; RandomAccess = no; VolumePollInterval = 60 OfflineOnUnmount = yes CloseOnPoll = yes MaximumOpenWait = 2 days } Is there anything obviously wrong with this configuration? When I run "stat stor" in the bconsole this is the output: Device status: Device "/dev/nst0" open but no Bacula volume is mounted. Device is BLOCKED waiting for appendable media. Total Bytes Read=0 Blocks Read=0 Bytes/block=0 Positioned at File=0 Block=0 It can only mount the new tape if I issue "umount" and "mount" on the bconsole. Then Bacula suddenly continues with the backup. Any thoughts? Thanks.
