Hello, I have a tape drive DELL PowerVault TL2000, it works very well with Bacula. Only one thing does not work, the Autochanger. Here is a little more detail:
I have 2 pools, 1 pool windows and 1 pool linux. For each pool I have a LTO-3 tape. Imagine that in the Drive-0 is the tape of linux-pool and one of the other slots (slot1 for example) there is the pool-strip windows. At 0h00, backup pool-linux starts, once the backup finished bacula unmounts the tape pool-linux and put it in slot 2. Then comes the pool of backup windows ... and this is where the problem. Bacula does not put the tape in the drive-0 but he leaves to Slot1, I received a mail to alert me that Bacula needs an intervention for mount the tape. So to summarize, bacula comes out the tape player to put in a slot but can not do the opposite. I specified the name of the Autochanger in "Device" in my bacula-dir.conf. the test with btape finish successfully. Here is my bacula-sd.conf : # # Default Bacula Storage Daemon Configuration file # # For Bacula release 2.4.4 (28 December 2008) -- debian lenny/sid # # You may need to change the name of your tape drive # on the "Archive Device" directive in the Device # resource.
