Hi,
I tried to configure bacula to use our Qualstart TLS-4120 AIT-2
autochanger on a debian sarge system with bacula 1.36.3.
To get the mtx-changer script to work, I enabled the following line:
mt -f $device offline
Now I'm able to use the script ot load/unload the tapes:
# /etc/bacula/scripts/mtx-changer /dev/sg3 list
1:
2:
3:
4:
5:
6:
That ok, only 6 slots are loaded with tapes.
# /etc/bacula/scripts/mtx-changer /dev/sg3 slots 0 /dev/st0 0
13
# /etc/bacula/scripts/mtx-changer /dev/sg3 load 3 /dev/st0 0
# mtx -f /dev/sg3 status
Storage Changer /dev/sg3:1 Drives, 13 Slots ( 1 Import/Export )
Data Transfer Element 0:Full (Storage Element 3 Loaded)
Storage Element 1:Full
Storage Element 2:Full
Storage Element 3:Empty
Storage Element 4:Full
Storage Element 5:Full
Storage Element 6:Full
Storage Element 7:Empty
Storage Element 8:Empty
Storage Element 9:Empty
Storage Element 10:Empty
Storage Element 11:Empty
Storage Element 12:Empty
Storage Element 13 IMPORT/EXPORT:Empty
# /etc/bacula/scripts/mtx-changer /dev/sg3 loaded 0 /dev/st0 0
3
# /etc/bacula/scripts/mtx-changer /dev/sg3 unload 3 /dev/st0 0
Unloading Data Transfer Element into Storage Element 3...done
I have to use the full command here, it would fail to set the tape
device offline.
# /etc/bacula/scripts/mtx-changer /dev/sg3 loaded 0 /dev/st0 0
0
So far, everything looks good.
Here is the relevant bacula-sd.conf part:
Device {
Name = Autochanger
Media Type = AIT-2
Archive Device = /dev/st0
Changer Device = /dev/sg3
Changer Command = "/etc/bacula/scripts/mtx-changer %c %o %S %a %d"
Autochanger = yes
LabelMedia =yes;
AutomaticMount = yes;
AlwaysOpen = yes;
#Mount Anonymous Volumes = no;
}
And the bacula-dir.conf storage part:
# Definition of AIT-2 tape storage device
Storage {
Name = Autochanger
Address = epefp119
SDPort = 9103
Password = ""
Device = Autochanger
Media Type = AIT-2
Autochanger = yes
}
I've try to get the status of the the automounter I get this:
*status

Device status:

Archive "Autochanger" is not open or does not exist.
I think this is not what I should see at this point.
*label

3992 Bad autochanger "load slot 2, drive 0": ERR=Child exited with code 1.

Do not forget to mount the drive!!!
Any ideas?
