Yes it is a label issue. To clear the label on the tape use the following
command:
mt -f /dev/nst1 rewind weof
Replace /dev/nst1 with the device appropriate to your system.
Also, to completely clear the catalog I find its easiest to stop bacula and
then run the two scripts
/etc/bacula/drop-bacula-tables
/etc/bacula/make-bacula-tables

Subject: [Bacula-users] How to start from a clean slate.
We have been running bacula for over a month and I now found I had
things a bit misconfigured. I want to start over so I purged and deleted
the contents of the catalog through the console. So the catalog showed
no volumes. When my scheduled job kicked off I get an error that says:
06-Jun 23:10 jerome-dir: Start Backup JobId 120,
Job=BackupCatalog.2006-06-06_23.10.00
06-Jun 23:10 jerome-dir: Created new Volume "Volume_0001" in catalog.
06-Jun 23:10 jerome-sd: 3301 Issuing autochanger "loaded drive 0"
command.
06-Jun 23:10 jerome-sd: 3302 Autochanger "loaded drive 0", result is
Slot 1.

06-Jun 23:17 jerome-dir: BackupCatalog.2006-06-06_23.10.00 Error:
Bacula 1.38.5 (18Jan06): 06-Jun-2006 23:17:22
I also got this error when the catalog tried to write:
06-Jun 23:10 jerome-sd: Please mount Volume "Volume_0001" on Storage
Device "Drive-0" (/dev/nst1) for Job BackupCatalog.2006-06-06_23.10.00
Is this a label issue? Is this covered in the Manual? I just want to
start over.
TIA
