Greetings everyone,

We have recently been having a problem where Bacula is no longer
automatically changing tapes and it is requiring manual intervention. Below
is what I see in the logs:


24-Jan 12:08 storage: End of Volume "CUZ277" at 64:8114 on device
"DLT8000-2" (/dev/sa1). Write of 64512 bytes got 0.
24-Jan 12:08 storage: End of medium on Volume "CUZ277" Bytes=58,715,185,981
Blocks=910,158 at 24-Jan-2006 12:08.
24-Jan 12:09 director: Pruned 1 Job on Volume "BZF282" from catalog.
...
24-Jan 12:11 storage: Please mount Volume "CUZ306" on Storage Device
"DLT8000-2" (/dev/sa1) for Job webhosting1.2006-01-24_05.00.13

We are running bacula 1.38.2 (recently upgraded from 1.36.3 where this used
to work) on FreeBSD 5.4 and the tape drives (Quantum DLT8000) are within an
ATL (96 slot) Autochanger.

Ok, that's the hint... you recently upgraded.

First, verify that you've got the necessary and newly introduced Autochanger section in SD configuration. If you've not got that, you have to kill your running jobs :-| because the SD needs a restart after that modification. (And remember to do the full btape test routine after modifying the SD configuration...)

Apart from that, I guess the catalog is not yet in the right state, i.e. the relationship between the Media information Slot and InChanger and the newly created StorageId is not correct.

Try to clear all changer-related information from the catalog, for example using a sql query like 'update Media set Slot=0,InChanger=0;' and do an 'update slots' afterwards. Should work, then.

From what I can see everything is set up correctly. Also, I am able to run
the load, unload, loaded commands from the command prompt (using
chio-bacula) successfully.

Our configuration files include:
