Arno Lehmann,
Thanks for you reply.
Im using RHEL 4 x86_64 with a dell powervault 124T.
Im using bacula for some time backing up to disk.
Now i bought a a dell powervault 124T so i can make backups to tape.
So, im newbe to tape issues.
Im on a test environment... making tests :P.
When you say «Have you run btape on that device?», what is the purpose? test
the tape? write a EOF?
Cant get much info on status:
*mount
The defined Storage resources are:
1: File
2: IBM-Ultrium-3
3: TapeLoader124T
Select Storage resource (1-3): 3
3301 Issuing autochanger "loaded drive 0" command.
3302 Autochanger "loaded drive 0", result: nothing loaded.
3001 Mounted Volume: 000001L3
