Hi there, I am having some problems trying to get my Tape drive working with
Bacula. I am very new to the world of Bacula as I was only introduced to it
back at the BSDCan 2007 gathering. Basically I am setting up a new file server
and need to backup the data on a daily basis but can't get past the point of
simply testing my drive. When running the btape test command, it seems that it
is able to write to the device but unable to read from it. Here is the error
output: # ./btape -c bacula-sd.conf /dev/sa0Tape block granularity is 1024
bytes.btape: butil.c:285 Using device: "/dev/sa0" for writing.btape:

records and an EOF, then rewind,and re-read the data to verify that it is
correct.This is an *essential* feature ...btape: btape.c:827 Wrote 1000 blocks

My hardware setup is as follows:CPU - AMD AM2 5600+Motherboard - Asus
M2N-LRSCSI Card - Adaptec 2130SLP (PCIX Ultra320)Tape Drive - HP StorageWorks
Ultrium 448Data Cartridge - HP LTO2 Ultrium 400GB I have been trying various
FreeBSD suggested configuration changes but in the end, I'm always getting the
same error. I manually tar'd 40GB of data to the tape drive then extracted it
back and it worked flawlessly. So I am guessing its a configuration setting
that I either got wrong or am missing.Any help would be very appreciated.
Thanks! Brad.
(Sorry if this gets posted twice as I had a message awaiting approval but it
disappeared)
