Jérémy, You can put your Dell 124T on your network and then HTTP to it. You will get a menu that will let you do many operations directly with the tape drive. Or use the front panel of your tape drive. Following the Dell owner's manual for instructions. Cleaning tapes is not a Bacula function (correct me anybody...).
Once your cleaning is done, do not use the front panel or HTTP menu for anything else, especially if you have an autoloader. (Again somebody correct me if I am wrong) , but Bacula keeps information about which tape is in what slot, and if you use the front panel or the HTTP menu to move tapes around, that information is not getting back to Bacula... If a tape is in the wrong place, Bacula should read the header info on the tape, decide that it is not the right one, and prompt you to find it ( I think...I'm still learning Bacula) Regards, Guy -----Message d'origine----- De : lalecherej [mailto:bacula-fo...@backupcentral.com] Envoyé : 30 mai 2012 05:42 À : bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net Objet : [Bacula-users] PowerVault 124T Bacula Auto cleaning Hi all, I have a Dell PowerVault 124T. On my PV-124T, I enabled auto cleaning (With Auto Clean enabled the loader will automatically load the cleaning tape when the drive requests cleaning). But, It's bacula or PV-124T which sends the drive requests cleaning ? How to know if the auto clean is functional and if my drive is clean ? Thanks.
