The first question I have is: what version of Bacula are you using? I ask because I don't see the "In Use Volume status:" that should come just after the status listing. As best I can tell, Bacula thinks the tape mounted on DLT-0 is blank or at least not a Bacula labeled tape. You might try "unmount storage=DLT-0" then "mount storage=DLT-0". Anyway, doing an unmount of that device should let you access it with mt. > > "status storage=DLT-0" gives: > > ... > Device status: > Autochanger "Sun-L11000" with devices: > "DLT-0" (/dev/rmt/0cbn) > "DLT-1" (/dev/rmt/1cbn) > "DLT-2" (/dev/rmt/2cbn) > Device "DLT-0" (/dev/rmt/0cbn) open but no Bacula volume is mounted. > Device is BLOCKED waiting for media. > Slot 117 is loaded in drive 1. > Total Bytes Read=0 Blocks Read=0 Bytes/block=0 > Positioned at File=0 Block=0 > Device "DLT-1" (/dev/rmt/1cbn) is mounted with Volume "LYSH009" > Slot 240 is loaded in drive 2. > Total Bytes=7,056,579,873 Blocks=109,384 Bytes/block=64,511 > Positioned at File=7 Block=885 > Device "DLT-2" (/dev/rmt/2cbn) is mounted with Volume "LYSE003" > Slot 174 is loaded in drive 3. > Total Bytes=5,492,391,458 Blocks=85,138 Bytes/block=64,511 > Positioned at File=7 Block=0 > > > A "mount storage=DLT-0" causes absolutely nothing.
