Hello list, i am running bacula 1.38.11 and i would like to backup to DVD follwoing this page: http://www.bacula.org/rel-manual/DVD_Volumes.html
This page describes how bacula writes the backups to a local direcory first, and then writes it to DVD. "status all" shows me this error: "Device is BLOCKED waiting for media." (see below). So i decided to label it. Label output: "Sending label command for Volume "TestDVD2" Slot 0 ... 3910 Unable to open device "DVD-Writer" (/dev/hdc): ERR=There is no valid media in the device "DVD-Writer" (/dev/hdc)." But i have got a valid media in my dvd drive. And its hdc. Here my console output for status and label: *status all linux-dir Version: 1.38.11 (28 June 2006) i686-pc-linux-gnu suse 10.1 Daemon started 08-Dec-06 20:10, 4 Jobs run since started.
