As a side note, 'update slots' does not seem to work in this scenario. a manual 'vchanger slots' shows all slots as empty - but does not set InChanger=0 when a slot is empty. This leaves bacula still thinking that the slots are populated. -- Steven Haigh Email: net...@crc.id.au Web: http://www.crc.id.au Phone: (03) 9001 6090 - 0412 935 897 Fax: (03) 8338 0299
