Hi, I previously posted this issue on this list but there seems to be no solution. I just upgraded to the latest release of bacula and the problem still exists. I changed the error state of the volume back to append but bacula is unable to position to the end of data. This occurs when the job before this one used another tape (e.g. a restore).
any ideas? 1000 OK: chet-dir Version: 2.4.3 (10 October 2008) Enter a period to cancel a command. *mess 14-Nov 12:31 chet-sd JobId 1140: Error: Unable to position to end of data on device "Exabyte VXA-2 Drive" (/dev/rmt/0cbn): ERR=dev.c:1325 read error on "Exabyte VXA-2 Drive" (/dev/rmt/0cbn).
