Thanks Erich, my windows 2003 SBS doesn't show a tab page named "Tape Symbolic Name" for the DLT drive. Nevertheless, I could run the tapeinfo program in a dos box while the Bacula Storage Service was stopped:
D:\Programme\Bacula\bin>tapeinfo -f tape0 Product Type: Tape Drive Vendor ID: 'QUANTUM ' Product ID: 'DLT-V4 ' ... But when I run a job I get still this message: 10-Jan 18:40 pthh-fs-sd: Alert: cannot open SCSI device 'tape0' - Permission denied 10-Jan 18:40 pthh-fs-sd: 3997 Bad alert command: tapeinfo -f tape0 | findstr TapeAlert: ERR=Unknown error. Do I have to stop the Bacula Storage Service before the tapeinfo.exe can work? Obviously I have to restart the service after tapeinfo.exe was executed. If this is true, the documentation should be updated and the setup should reflect this when the default config files are created. Does the stopping/starting of the Bacula Storage Service inside of a running job has any other impact I do not see in the moment?
