Dear Bacula Users, I have been using Bacula for about 4 years now. I recently moved from a single drive LTO-3 Exabyte Autochanger to a 2 drive LTO-5 TL-2000 Autochanger. All the devices are recognized properly and I can read/write from both jobs. The issue I'm having is that Bacula almost never uses the 2nd drive. It does occasionally, but I can't figure out a rhyme or reason for it. I've tried setting "Prefer Mounted Volumes = No" in a JobDefs resource for Tape jobs, but still no luck. It does work, just randomly and not in a way that seem configurable, predictable, or useful. Can anyone help? Yours, Shon
