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.

 Christoph
