Hi

I've upgraded from 1.36.3 to 1.38.9 a few weeks back and after a few
weeks of successful backups I've decided to try to restore some jobs to
make sure the restoring is working. I've come across an issue with the
restore function. Every time when bacula loads a tape into an autoloader
(with 2 DLT drives), it tries to rewind the tape and fails:

-----
29-May 16:28 filo-sd: RestoreFiles.2006-05-29_15.59.56 Warning:
acquire.c:146 Couldn't rewind device "PowerLoader02" (/dev/nst1):
ERR=dev.c:678 Rewind error on "PowerLoader02" (/dev/nst1).
ERR=Input/output error.

29-May 16:28 filo-sd: Please mount Volume "FULL-005" on Storage Device
"PowerLoader02" (/dev/nst1) for Job RestoreFiles.2006-05-29_15.59.56
-----

After that point if I run a mount command to mount PowerLoader02, it
starts to restore the files without any problems until it will require a
different tape. After bacula changes the tape, the same happens and I
have to manually mount the device.

My question is how to disable the automatic tape rewinding so that the
restore process would be automated without the user interaction, just
like it was with 1.36.3 bacula? As far as I know, the tape is
automatically rewound before being ejected from the drive. So, why
should we try to rewind it again after inserting it into the drive?

Many thanks
Andrei
