One thing that I see is that your LTO-6 points to an SG device and not an
ST device. Since you now have a library I would think that you would want
bacula to reuse the tape, if so then you should use an nst device and not
the base st. The tape will rewind between jobs when you use the st device
causing a long delay for bacula if it need to reuse for the next job.
I would recommend that you use a more specific path to your devices as the
st and sg can change with kernel updates or new devices added or if you
need to move to an new interface.

Ubuntu 16.04 on a Dell PE 2900 (old but gold). Just got this brand new Dell
TL1000 with 8 slots and one drive as an upgrade from the old simple LTO-4
we have. Everything works fine on bash using the mtx-changer script, while
on bconsole it does not. Any hint?
