Hi, I have a HP 1760 SAS LTO-4 drive with an LSI 9212 hba under Ubuntu 10.04, Bacula 5.0.3.
The drive is set for variable blocks. I cannot get any block size above 64K to work. 64K works just fine. Any ideas? Btape says (using 256K block): btape: btape.c:1148 Wrote 10000 blocks of 262044 bytes. btape: btape.c:608 Wrote 1 EOF to "Tape" (/dev/nst0) btape: btape.c:1164 Wrote 10000 blocks of 262044 bytes. btape: btape.c:608 Wrote 1 EOF to "Tape" (/dev/nst0) btape: btape.c:1206 Rewind OK.
