The file backups work fine but I am havign problems backing up to a tape drive.
Every time I try to run a test, it hangs on
Starting backup job Group Tape job ..
Automatically selected Catalog: MyCatalog
Using Catalog "MyCatalog"
A job name must be specified.
The defined Job resources are:
10: Group Tape job
Select Job resource (1-10): 10
Run Backup job
JobName: Group Tape job
Level: Full
Client: group-fd
FileSet: Group server files - test data only
Pool: Tape Backups Pool - weekly (From Job resource)
Storage: Tape Backups (From Job resource)
When: 2008-12-15 17:14:23
Priority: 10
OK to run? (yes/mod/no):
.. the backup job is now running. When complete, the results will be shown
below ..

and there it sits. If I go to the status screen, I get a "is waiting for a
mount request" (I'm using webmin) on teh tape.
If I use the bacula bat tool to status the drive, I get this output:

I get this:

*test
=== Write, rewind, and re-read test ===
I'm going to write 1000 records and an EOF
then write 1000 records and an EOF, then rewind,
and re-read the data to verify that it is correct.
This is an *essential* feature ...blah, blah, blah until the test completes
sucessfully.
The setup files are shown below:
bacula-dir.conf
-------------------
Storage {
Name = "Tape Backups"
Password = nunya
Address = 192.168.1.77
SDPort = 9103

}
Pool {
Name = "Tape Backups Pool - weekly"
Pool Type = Backup
Maximum Volume Jobs = 12
Volume Retention = 30 days
Recycle = yes
AutoPrune = yes

}

FileSet = "Group server files - test data only"

# Archive Device = /dev/st0

# Autochanger = Yes
# Changer Device = /dev/changer

}
Does anyone have any idea what's wrong?
Thanks!
