I am trying to get bacula-sd 1.38.11 running on my debian sarge box
(bacula via backports) using a Exabyte packetloader1x10 /w VXA-3 drive
connected to a 39160 SCSI card. In the "Testing your tape drive with
bacula" chapter i can write and read the drive with tar, the btape
'test' section works, and btape 'fill' works if manualy operate the
changer with mtx for the second tape. The problems start with the
btape 'auto' test where i recieve the following messages...
=== Autochanger test ===
3301 Issuing autochanger "loaded" command.
Slot 5 loaded. I am going to unload it.
3302 Issuing autochanger "unload 5 0" command.
unload status=OK 0
3303 Issuing autochanger "load 1 0" command.
3303 Autochanger "load 1 0" status is OK.

26-Oct 08:44 btape: 3302 Autochanger "loaded drive 0", result is Slot 1.
btape: btape.c:1198 Bad status from rewind. ERR=dev.c:678 Rewind error
on "Exabyte320" (/dev/nst0). ERR=Input/output error.
The test failed, probably because you need to put
a longer sleep time in the mtx-script in the load) case.
Adding a 30 second sleep and trying again ...

26-Oct 08:56 btape: 3302 Autochanger "loaded drive 0", result is Slot 1.
26-Oct 08:56 btape: Fatal Error at dev.c:1525 because:
dev.c:1524 Attempt to WEOF on non-appendable Volume
btape: btape.c:1198 Bad status from rewind. ERR=dev.c:1524 Attempt to
WEOF on non-appendable Volume
the second block just repeats over and over. From how i read that it
sounds like the tape is write protected, yet when i drop out the test
and try to write to the tape it has just loaded with tar, it works with
no issues.
This is how my Autochanger and Device resouce look...
Autochanger {
Name = DevserverPacketloader
Device = VXA3Drive
Changer Command = "/etc/bacula/scripts/mtx-changer %c %o %S %a %d"
Changer Device = /dev/sg2
}
Device {
Name = VXA3Drive
Drive Index = 0
Media Type = VXA
Archive Device = /dev/nst0
AutomaticMount = yes;
AlwaysOpen = yes;
RemovableMedia = yes;
RandomAccess = no;
AutoChanger = yes
Alert Command = "sh -c 'tapeinfo -f %c |grep TapeAlert|cat'"
}
Hopefully i am doing something glaringly wrong here, any suggestions?
