Hi all
First off, I have bacula (v1.38) up and running at work with a
Overland LTO3 unit (zero problems!), so I thought it might be worth
getting it set up at home as well (hell, my MP3s are far more
important than work data :)
Sure... (how many, and do you want to share? ;-)
Just joking...)
... and I run into a problem at the first hurdle. I am trying to run
"btape" to check the autochanger, and its failing (yes, even with the
"mt $device offline" line enabled in mtx-changer)

The test failed, probably because you need to put
a longer sleep time in the mtx-script in the load) case.
Adding a 30 second sleep and trying again ...

Well, that might easily be solved... I guess the timeout after the wait
is not long enough. I'm using a DLT4000 drive here, and sometimes, with
tapes initialized by higher capacity drives, I see load times of several
minutes.
My workaround was not to set the sleep timeout to a very high value, but
rather to enable the function wait_for_drive in the mtx-changer script.
Works great, usually.
To investigate if thiat is really your problem, you can do the following:
Stop the SD or unmount the tape drive.
From a shell, use mtx to load a tape.
as soon as mtx returns, use tapeinfo to query the tape drives state.
Usually, you will _not_ get a ready and BOT state.
That's the result of the independance of loader and drive in the ADIC
FastStor devices - mtx returns as soon as the loader has done its work,
but then the drive only started. And DLT loading can take quite long.
