I retrying that, it says; Slot Volume ============== 5 KDZ000L4 6 KDZ001L4 7 KDZ002L4 8 KDZ003L4 > > => > => And "mtx -f /dev/changer status" says: > => > => mtx -f /dev/changer status > => Storage Changer /dev/changer:1 Drives, 8 Slots ( 0 Import/Export ) > => Data Transfer Element 0:Full (Storage Element 8 Loaded):VolumeTag = > => KDZ003L4 > => Storage Element 1:Empty > => Storage Element 2:Empty > => Storage Element 3:Empty > => Storage Element 4:Empty > => Storage Element 5:Full :VolumeTag=KDZ000L4 > => Storage Element 6:Full :VolumeTag=KDZ001L4 > => Storage Element 7:Full :VolumeTag=KDZ002L4 > => Storage Element 8:Empty > => > => I imported them into Bacula using "update volumes". > > Do you mean: > update volumes > then > slots from autochanger > > That tells bacula to update it's idea of what tapes are present, but I > don't believe that it writes a label to any tape.
