This is a known bug that has been reported, but still exists. The job wants the tape in use by another job that is using it in drive 0. Your options are:
1. Let it wait until the job(s) using the tape in drive 0 finishes. The pitfall here is if the tape becomes full. 2. Cancel the job(s) requesting the tape in drive 1. Don't restart the job, but start a new job. It may or may not decide to use a different tape. 3. Cancel the job(s) using the tape in drive 0. Bacula should move the tape from drive 0 to drive 1 once all of the connections to the tape and drive have been released. 4. If, for some strange reason there are no jobs using the tape in drive 0, try releasing drive 0 in bconsole – this will put the tape back into its slot and Bacula should mount it for you. You may need to use a combination of #4 and one of the other options. If none of the above corrects the issue, you may need to restart both your director and storage daemons and start again.

I am getting below error in “status” and backup stop ( list jobs show as running). I notice when I run “/usr/libexec/bacula/mtx-changer” tape "NY5039L4" is mounted in Drive. From Bacula point of view mtx-changer can show you that a tape is loaded, not mounted. Then why bacula show BLOCKED. How to resolve this issue? Bacula is asking you to mount a tape. Did you do this? You can mount a tape with mount command in bconsole. Is there any parameter ? Device "Drive-1" (/dev/nst1) is waiting for: Volume: NY5216L4 Pool: Billable Media type: LTO-4 Device is BLOCKED waiting for mount of volume "NY5039L4", Pool: Billable Media type: LTO-4 Slot 1 is loaded in drive 1.
