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: 
btape.c:368 open device "HP_Ultrium" (/dev/sa0): OK*test=== Write, rewind, and 
re-read test ===I'm going to write 1000 records and an EOFthen write 1000 
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

Messages {  Name = Standard  director = quagmire-dir = all}   My software setup 
is as follows:FreeBSD 5.5 x86Bacula 2.2.5 (Installed from source)MySQL 5.0.45   
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.
