There are some example tape configs in the default bacula-sd.conf. Note also that Bacula should use /dev/nst0, not /dev/st0. I suggest you run the tape tests described here: http://www.bacula.org/5.0.x-manuals/en/problems/problems/Testing_Your_Tape_Drive.html __Martin ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Benefiting from Server Virtualization: Beyond Initial Workload Consolidation -- Increasing the use of server virtualization is a top priority.Virtualization can reduce costs, simplify management, and improve application availability and disaster protection.
