Bacula doesn't care what the slots are called. It just queries mtx for information about what slots are available, which slots are full, which are empty, and which label (and therefore tape) is in each slot. Have you tried manipulating the change using mtx? What does 'mtx -f /dev/sgN status' do? You should be able to 'update slots' to make bacula see what is in each slot, and 'label barcodes' to write the tape label to the tape. For instance on my autochanger 'update slots' says: *update slots Automatically selected Storage: Autochanger Connecting to Storage daemon Autochanger at xxx:9103 ... 3306 Issuing autochanger "slots" command. Device "Autochanger" has 24 slots. Connecting to Storage daemon Autochanger at xxx:9103 ... 3306 Issuing autochanger "list" command. Catalog record for Volume "ABC456L4" updated to reference slot 11. Catalog record for Volume "ABC123L4" updated to reference slot 7. Whilst mtx gives the following info: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/etc/bacula# mtx -f /dev/sg1 status Storage Changer /dev/sg1:1 Drives, 24 Slots ( 1 Import/Export ) Data Transfer Element 0:Full (Storage Element 7 Loaded):VolumeTag = ABC123L4 Storage Element 1:Empty Storage Element 2:Empty Storage Element 3:Empty Storage Element 4:Empty Storage Element 5:Empty Storage Element 6:Empty Storage Element 7:Empty Storage Element 8:Empty Storage Element 9:Empty Storage Element 10:Empty Storage Element 11:Full :VolumeTag=ABC456L4 Storage Element 12:Empty Storage Element 13:Empty Storage Element 14:Empty Storage Element 15:Empty Storage Element 16:Empty Storage Element 17:Empty Storage Element 18:Empty Storage Element 19:Empty Storage Element 20:Empty Storage Element 21:Empty Storage Element 22:Empty Storage Element 23:Empty Storage Element 24 IMPORT/EXPORT:Empty ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
