Dear List, We have a Seagate Scorpion DAT DDS-4 STD2401LW Internal SCSI Tape Drive (single slot). I have set Bacula to automount tapes. It does this sometimes but mostly I have to manually mount tapes. For some reason it does not automount although automount=yes is defined in Bacula's config. No info in logs on the subject afaik and also no email warning that the job cannot run due to a not mounted tape. When I look at the status through bconsole the SD claims that the drive is "user unmounted". We run 3 jobs every night (in this sequence): 1. backup server 2, verify 3. backup catalog the last job has a postjob ejecting the tape.
postjob Script: #! /bin/sh /etc/bacula/scripts/delete_catalog_backup echo "unmount DDS-4" | /usr/bin/bconsole -c /etc/bacula/bconsole.conf mt -f /dev/st0 rewind mt -f /dev/st0 eject exit 0 Obviously I can use a cronjob or a prejob on the first job to mount the tape, but I prefer to tackle the issue of ignoring the automount. Any ideas please on how I can tackle this issue? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by: SourcForge Community SourceForge wants to tell your story. http://p.sf.net/sfu/sf-spreadtheword _______________________________________________ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users
