Hello!
I'm trying to configure Bacula for our backups at work with an Exabyte
Packetloader 1x10 80/160 changer/tape backup.
The changer is supported and everything, but I'm having a weird problem.
Each time I start a job, I get this:
- --------------
18-Nov 23:05 newt-sd: Job Newt_Incremental.2005-11-18_23.05.00 waiting.
Cannot find any appendable volumes.
Please use the "label" command to create a new Volume for:
Storage: "Exabyte VXA2 Drive" (/dev/nst0)
Media type: VXA-2
Pool: Tapes Pool
- --------------
BUT, all my tapes were labeled with a "label barcodes" and are appendable:
- --------------

An "st st" gives me:
- --------------
Device status:
Autochanger "Exabyte VXA2 Packetloader 1x10" with devices:
"Exabyte VXA2 Drive" (/dev/nst0)
Device "DiskStorage" (/mnt/archive) is not open or does not exist.
Device "Exabyte VXA2 Drive" (/dev/nst0) is mounted with Volume "A0000001"
Slot 1 is loaded in drive 0.
Total Bytes Read=64,512 Blocks Read=1 Bytes/block=64,512
Positioned at File=0 Block=0
====
In Use Volume status:
A0000001 on device "Exabyte VXA2 Drive" (/dev/nst0)
====
- --------------
If I try to label a tape with another name, it says it's already labeled
as A0000001, as an example.
My bacula-sd.conf looks like this:
- --------------
Device {
Name = Disk Storage
Media Type = File
Archive Device = /mnt/archive
LabelMedia = yes; # lets Bacula label unlabeled media
Random Access = Yes;
AutomaticMount = yes; # when device opened, read it
RemovableMedia = no;
AlwaysOpen = no;
}
Autochanger {
Name = "Exabyte VXA2 Packetloader 1x10"
Device = "Exabyte VXA2 Drive"
Changer Command = "/usr/local/bacula/etc/mtx-changer %c %o %S %a %d"
Changer Device = /dev/sg1
}
Device {
Name = "Exabyte VXA2 Drive"
Media Type = VXA-2
Archive Device = /dev/nst0
AutomaticMount = yes;
AlwaysOpen = yes;
RemovableMedia = yes;
RandomAccess = no;
AutoChanger = yes
Changer Command = "/usr/local/bacula/etc/mtx-changer %c %o %S %a %d"
Alert Command = "sh -c 'tapeinfo -f %c |grep TapeAlert|cat'"
Changer Device = /dev/sg1
}
- --------------
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!
