Hi List,

this is the last bacula message:
01-Sep 08:31 backup-sd-bb: 3301 Issuing autochanger "loaded? drive 0" command.
01-Sep 08:31 backup-sd-bb: 3302 Autochanger "loaded? drive 0", result is Slot 
20.
01-Sep 08:31 backup-sd-bb: Volume "FUL110" previously written, moving to end of 
data.

status sd
Autochanger "JBBB" with devices:
    "JBBB-1" (/dev/nst0)
    "JBBB-2" (/dev/nst1)
Device "JBBB-1" (/dev/nst0) is mounted with:
     Volume:      FUL110
     Pool:        FUL
     Media type:  SDLT-320
     Device is being initialized.
     Slot 20 is loaded in drive 0.

tape library drive status
Tape Motion     Reading


since one hour the "end of data" is not found ...
looks like a defective tape.

how does bacula  find  the end of data?
first forward to the last written file/block, and if this fails, reading the 
tape from beginning to find the end of data?
this could explain the tape motion "Reading" and the time it took, the tape was 
filled with 175GB.

i have canceled this operation by shutting down the sd and ejecting the tape 
with mtx.
is there a better way to handle this ?

Regards

Thomas


grrrr, the next tape failed also:

01-Sep 11:14 backup-sd-bb: zlato.bb.ic3s.de.2007-08-31_23.01.10 Error: Unable 
to position to end of data on device "JBBB-1"
(/dev/nst0): ERR=dev.c:885 ioctl MTEOM error on "JBBB-1" (/dev/nst0). 
ERR=Eingabe-/Ausgabefehler.
01-Sep 11:14 backup-sd-bb: Marking Volume "FUL111" in Error in Catalog.

this one fails faster it contains only ~ 500 MB,
