You should ensure that no autmounting mechanism is active for that device anyway... I found that writes to DVD would work without problems, but the data could not be accessed when I had udev/hal automounting a DVD I used for Bacula. >>> Shouldn't SD "format" (label) the media before trying to >>> mount it? >> Only if you have set automatic label up.

Hmm... at least in your log excerpt I didn't see the DIR and SD deciding to create a new volume. These two settings should be enough. >> Does the label command work against blank media? > Do you mean the label command available in bconsole?

That's a "bug" in the manual, then... it should be described as labeling a volume. As all volumes Bacula uses have to be labeled, that command applies to tapes, disk files, and DVDs.
