Hi !
I had a try this morning with the btape fill again, after erasing my
tapes and relabeling them. The test was successfull.
Starting a few jobs at the moment to see if things improve...
A strange thing I noticed ... which is the correct storage device
parameter "RandomAccess" or "Random Access" (= no, for tapes) ... maybe
it's that ?

Yvan,
I see that you are running a TL2000 have you run the btape fill test on
your system. If you have did you get any errors?
I seem to be getting the following one.
05-May 15:17 btape: Fatal Error at dev.c:1705 because:
dev.c:1704 Attempt to WEOF on non-appendable Volume
Thanks
H

TS3100)
Hi,
thank you for the advices. We have very similar configurations, and I'm
sure I'm not too far from the solution. I tried to use your settings in
the storage daemon config file, and the "mt" options as well, than I
didn't try so far.
But, as soon as I put those settings, I have another error
Hardware End of Medium = No # defaut is Yes
Fast Forward Space File = No # This line required if above
which is :
3-May 02:20 setmseblx0007-sd JobId 170: Error: Unable to position to end
of data on device "IBMLTO4" (/dev/nst0): ERR=dev.c:1354 ioctl MTFSF
error on "IBMLTO4" (/dev/nst0). ERR=Input/output error.
Strange that it works for you then ... I issued all the "mt" commands
you wrote. Tapeinfo gives me the samed infos as you have, but it's MTFSF
error or MTEOM ...

Yvan Broccard
I also had very similar problems when I first started testing Bacula.
Now,
I have both TS3100 & TS3200 models running without any issues on
RedHat 4 and 5 servers. My configurations are:
Autochanger {
Name = TS3200_1_DRV1
Device = LTO4_1
Changer Device = /dev/sg7 # This is mapped to the
AutoLoader
Changer Command = "/etc/bacula/config/mtx-changer %c %o %S %a
%d"
}
Device {
Name = LTO4_1
Drive Index = 0
Media Type = LTO4
Archive Device = /dev/nst0 # Device nstX created
automatically by st daemon.
AutoChanger = yes
AutomaticMount = yes; # when device opened, read it
AlwaysOpen = yes; # Default value yes
RemovableMedia = yes;
RandomAccess = no;
Requires Mount = no;
Maximum Open Wait = 300 # Default value
Maximum Rewind Wait = 300 # Default value
Maximum Changer Wait = 120 # default is 120 secs
Maximum Job Spool Size = 2G # default is unlimited
Spool Directory = "/export/shared/spool"
Label Type = IBM
Check Labels = yes
LabelMedia = no;
Hardware End of Medium = No # defaut is Yes
Fast Forward Space File = No # This line required if above
HEOM is set to "No"
BSF at EOM = no # Default is no
Two EOF = no
Volume Poll Interval = 300 # Poll the drive to seek the
status
}
I also changed the LTO4 tape drives' parameters with the "mt" command.
1. mt -f /dev/st0 stsetoptions
2. mt -f /dev/st0 compression
3. mt -f /dev/st0 stsetoptions buffer-writes
4. mt -f /dev/st0 stsetoptions async-write
5. mt -f /dev/st0 stsetoptions fast-eod
6. mt -f /dev/st0 stsetoptions two-fms
7. tapeinfo -f /dev/sg2
