Here is the old and new device configs. The old one did work with 2.0.3, maybe it should'nt have... What was perhaps even more intersting was the fact that our already labelled and fresh tapes were unusable. Because I did not know for sure how to get around that I purged, erased, and relabelled them, after that all was fine. Old Device section: Device { Name = Drive-1 Media Type = LTO-2 Archive Device = /dev/nsa0 LabelMedia = yes; Random Access = No; AutomaticMount = yes; RemovableMedia = yes; BSF at EOM = yes; Hardware End of Medium = no AlwaysOpen = no; Maximum Spool Size = 65498251264 Spool Directory = /dataspool AutoChanger = yes Alert Command = "sh -c '/usr/local/sbin/tapeinfo -f %c |grep TapeAlert|cat'" } New Device section Device { Name = Drive-1 Media Type = LTO-2 Archive Device = /dev/nsa0 LabelMedia = yes; Random Access = No; AutomaticMount = yes; RemovableMedia = yes; BSF at EOM = no; TWO EOF = no; Fast Forward Space File = yes; Hardware End of Medium = no; Backward Space Record = no; Backward Space File = no; AlwaysOpen = no; Maximum Spool Size = 65498251264 Spool Directory = /dataspool AutoChanger = yes Alert Command = "sh -c '/usr/local/sbin/tapeinfo -f %c |grep TapeAlert|cat'" } ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
