2/ The second one, more elegant, as you do not have to define a ChangerDevice= directive for a device that is not an autochanger, is to modify the AlertCommand= and replace the '%c' with '%a' that is the subtitution for the archive device name (as stated in the manual (chapter 28.5 bottom of page 409 and other places as well). This way Bacula will substitute '%a' with the actual value of the ArchiveDevice= directive in your SD.conf file before it is sent to the OS for execution. > -- > ---- _ _ _ _ ___ _ _ _ > |Y#| | | |\/| | \ |\ | | |Ryan Novosielski - Systems Programmer III > |$&| |__| | | |__/ | \| _| |novosirj <at> umdnj.edu - 973/972.0922 (2-0922) > \__/ Univ. of Med. and Dent.|IST/AST - NJMS Medical Science Bldg - C630 > > Attachment (novosirj.vcf): text/x-vcard, 306 bytes > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------- > This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express > Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take > control of your XML.
