Hi, Over the couple of years that I have been using two VXA-172 drives, I have noticed that my VXA tapes occasionally lose their label. Once this week, on each of two different backup systems, I have had to intervene because bacula said to put in a specific tape or label a new one. The tape bacula wants is already loaded into the drive. If I then read the label with btape, btape says there is no label. So I then label the tape again and go on my merry way.
If this is the case, I think I will have to come up with a way to read the label during a load, and if its not there, then see if the tape exists in the catalog, and if it does exist, then relabel it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Open Source Business Conference (OSBC), March 24-25, 2009, San Francisco, CA -OSBC tackles the biggest issue in open source: Open Sourcing the Enterprise -Strategies to boost innovation and cut costs with open source participation -Receive a $600 discount off the registration fee with the source code: SFAD http://p.sf.net/sfu/XcvMzF8H _______________________________________________ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users
