Stefan, Speaking as a newbie that was a bit overwhelmed when I first started with Bacula and a bit confused about the configuration file. I am not sure which files you started with but the ones I downloaded (I started just a few months back) had good examples in the default conf files. There is one there for an autochanger with two drives. If you look at that and just change things to match your setup it should work out of the box. I commented out the second drive designation. I am not going to try and explain this in detail since I am still new at this but here is my setup:
# # An autochanger device with two drives # Autochanger { Name = Autochanger Device = Drive-0 # Device = Drive-2 Changer Command = "/root/bacula/bin/mtx-changer %c %o %S %a %d" Changer Device = /dev/sg2 } Device { Name = Drive-0 # Drive Index = 0 Media Type = LTO-2 Archive Device = /dev/nst1 AutomaticMount = yes; # when device opened, read it AlwaysOpen = yes; RemovableMedia = yes; RandomAccess = no; AutoChanger = yes # # Enable the Alert command only if you have the mtx package loaded Alert Command = "sh -c 'tapeinfo -f %c |grep TapeAlert|cat'" } This is in bacual-sd.conf. The /dev stuff would go in Changer Device and in the Archive Device. The Device= I believe is actually a label bacula uses to find the correct device. I hope that helps. John J.

I had seen the tutorial but nothing run. My current bacula-sd.conf : Device { Name = HPloader Media Type = DDS-4 Changer Device = /dev/st0 Archive Device = /dev/nst0 Changer Command = "/etc/bacula/scripts/mtx-changer %c %o %S %a %d" AutomaticMount = yes; # when device opened, read it AlwaysOpen = yes; Label media = yes; RemovableMedia = yes; RandomAccess = no; AutoChanger = yes } I had find this configuraion in an example file in the bacula install, but when i want to label my tapes, i can't do. I just have the possibility to label my autoloader (slot 0). Bacula don't ask me which slot i want labelling. I think i have a wrong bacula-sd.conf ... Is somebody run bacula with an HP-autoloader ?? Can somebody help me ?
