Dear list...
I have just replaced my working old DDS-3 streamer with an AIT-1
streamer (dmesg says "SDX-300C"). First I ran "btape AIT" and entered
"test" to check if Bacula is happy with that drive. Everything went well
(only results shown):
---------------------------------
# btape AIT
Tape block granularity is 1024 bytes.
btape: butil.c:272 Using device: "AIT" for writing.
btape: btape.c:338 open device "AIT" (/dev/nst0): OK
*test
=== Write, rewind, and re-read test ===
btape: btape.c:820 Rewind OK.
1000 blocks re-read correctly.
Got EOF on tape.
1000 blocks re-read correctly.
=== Test Succeeded. End Write, rewind, and re-read test ===
=== Write, rewind, and position test ===
Reposition to file:block 1:999
Block 2000 re-read correctly.
=== Test Succeeded. End Write, rewind, and re-read test ===
=== Append files test ===
We should be in file 3. I am at file 3. This is correct!
We should be in file 4. I am at file 4. This is correct!
=== Write, backup, and re-read test ===
Block re-read correct. Test succeeded!
=== Forward space files test ===
We should be in file 5. I am at file 5. This is correct!
---------------------------------
So everything went well. However when I try to label a tape from
bconsole or just enter "stat storage=AIT" the console hangs. I have to
kill the console process in another windows to make it quit. CTRL-C or
CTRL-Z do not work.
Relevant part of my /etc/bacula/bacula-sd.conf:
---------------------------------
Device {
Name = AIT
Media Type = AIT1
Archive Device = /dev/nst0
AutomaticMount = yes;
AlwaysOpen = yes;
RemovableMedia = yes;
RandomAccess = no;
VolumePollInterval = 1 minute
OfflineOnUnmount = yes
CloseOnPoll = no
MaximumOpenWait = 2 days
}
---------------------------------
Reading and writing using "dd" works well. Writing files and restoring
them via "tar cvzf /dev/nst0 ..." and "tar xvzf /dev/nst0" works well.
(It didn't work early today. I think I ran "mt -f /dev/nst0 setblk 0" or
something on it while looking for solutions on the usenet. Maybe that
has changed something regarding the block size.)
So I started the storage daemon with "-d100 -f" but it looks that after
a few seconds the device is suddenly busy although lsof says that it's
the bacula-sd itself blocking the device:

My version of bacula is 1.38.11. I'd appreciate any hints that help me
debug this situation.
