Hello List!
I am running a freshly compiled and installed bacula 1.38.3 on
ubuntu-server 5.10. I use a DVD-RAM device and media which i created
with mkfs.ext3 /dev/hdd.
I get the following error after starting a job:
----------------------------
Please mount Volume "RT_Backup_volume0001" on Storage Device
"DVD-Storage" (/dev/hdd) for Job Client1.2006-01-05_23.54.00
Hmm. You're on the wrong track here... you can't use the unmodified
dvd-handler script. You have to implement (at least) the following
functions:
- detect a DVD-RAM
- if necessary, format and mount (can be done later)
- free space estimate using df, for example
- write command using cp
...
Is it possible that the dvd-handle script detects my "rewriteable" DVD
and tries to find a previous RT_Backup_volume0001 Volume?
Even worse... it not only does that, but also decides that, in case it
finds a file system where it looks, the disk is not empty. And, last
time I checked, it didn't work at all with used disks. Finally, part of
the mentioned behaviour comes from th SD itself.
What else could i do to debug this?
First, try tu understand dvd-handler itself. The script can be run from
the shell, and it's easy to find the locations where you've got to
implement new functions: everything DVD-specific (blanking, determining
available space, and writing) needs to be replaced by something else. I
expect that "something else" to be much simpler than what Nicolas and I
wrote, btw.
Don't mount the DVD-RAM yourself, let the SD handle that. And try to use
a FS which doesn't create lost+found directories, I suppose those
confuse the DIR.

Thanks, Mario
