After restarting, the status looks OK:

05-Jun 15:14 polo-sd: Wrote label to prelabeled Volume "DLT7000-
JNY227" on device "DLT" (/dev/nsa0)

That time, 15:14, is when I restarted bacula-sd.  So it's only 
writing the label then... interesting.



Status storage now says:

Device status:
Device "FileStorage" (/home/bacula/db) is not open or does not exist.
Device "DLT" (/dev/nsa0) is mounted with Volume="DLT7000-JNY227" 
Pool="Default"
    Total Bytes=601,380,862 Blocks=9,322 Bytes/block=64,511
    Positioned at File=0 Block=9,323

That looks better.  And the numbers are going up too.  That means 
jobs are now progressing.  In fact, the first job just finished.  I 
may have to rerun some jobs, but I think things should be cause up 
within a few hours.

cheers
