IIRC it's caused by Bacula trying to read the tape to see if it's already labelled prior to writing its own label. Obviously if the tape is new, there won't be anything on there. I've seen the exact same thing across two tape drives (and indeed types of tape media) for the last couple of years - it can safely be ignored. -- James Cort IT Manager U4EA Technologies Ltd. -- U4EA Technologies http://www.u4eatech.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users
