All the logs tell us is that the tape drive could not write to the tape - without further investigation, it's impossible to say whether the tapes are at fault, the tape drive is becoming unreliable, or if there's something wonky with your controller or cabling. > * why bacula doesn't sent me a mail with that error? From a logical point of view: Because the director only sends mails at the END of a job, or when a job needs intervention. The write error did not terminate the job, nor did it require intervention - failing tapes are not uncommon, so the strategy is to just continue on the next tape. Ideally, you always have an extra volume in the scratch pool as a spare, and the situation gets resolved automatically, even when it happens at 3am without any human presense. So the behaviour makes sense in a way. That being said, I agree it would be very nice in some situations if there was a feature to receive extra email notifications for I/O-Errors instead of relying on the user to scan their daily logs for it. -- Mit freundlichen Grüßen Sven Tegethoff EDV-Team _________________________________________________________ UDO BÄR GmbH & Co.
