Hello everybody,

for some reason - maybe I did something that caused it, but I don't
remember - one of my tapes has no label any more. Hence during restore
bacula does not recognize the tape:

07-Okt 23:59 server: RestoreFiles.2007-10-07_23.57.27 Error: block.c:263
Volume data error at 0:0! Wanted ID: "BB02", got "". Buffer discarded.
07-Okt 23:59 server: RestoreFiles.2007-10-07_23.57.27 Warning:
acquire.c:146 Requested Volume "L20002" on "LTO-2-Laufwerk" (/dev/nst0) is
not a Bacula labeled Volume, because: ERR=block.c:263 Volume data error at
0:0! Wanted ID: "BB02", got "". Buffer discarded.

We discussed a similar problem in [1] but the last idea (relabeling option
in btape) was not commented any more.

How can I write a label to the tape without an EOF after the label? I know
the length of the label (see above), so following data would not be
destroyed, I think.

How can I make a dump of the tape to disk, so that I have more than one
try on this? I tried dd, but this needs a block device as source.


Thank you very much

Paul
