I have a follow up, but first the TLDR question - is a Fedora 29 Baclua
package update imminent from the current 9.2.1 which may address this?
I have an old server from before the LTO days which has a DLT drive. To try to
narrow down this issue, as seen on 2 servers with 2 previously perfect LTO-3
drives, I installed Fed 29 and tried to label a DLT tape, i.e. 3rd server,
third tape drive. It threw the same error:
connecting to Storage daemon BHST-MONKEY-SDLT-INT1 at monkey:9103 ...
Sending label command for Volume "TEST-101" Slot 0 ...
3000 OK label. VolBytes=64512 VolABytes=0 VolType=0 Volume="TEST-101"
Device="QUANTUM-SDLT-INT1" (/dev/st0)
Catalog record for Volume "TEST-101", Slot 0 successfully created.
Requesting to mount QUANTUM-SDLT-INT1 ...
3902 Cannot mount Volume on Storage Device ""QUANTUM-SDLT-INT1" (/dev/st0)"
because:
Read label block failed: requested Volume "" on Tape device "QUANTUM-SDLT-INT1"
(/dev/st0) is not a Bacula labeled Volume, because: ERR=block_util.c:425 Volume
data error at 0:0! Wanted ID: "BB02", got "". Buffer discarded.
3905 Device ""QUANTUM-SDLT-INT1" (/dev/st0)" open but no Bacula volume is
mounted.
If this is not a blank tape, try unmounting and remounting the Volume.
Do not forget to mount the drive!!!

-----------------------------------------------------
I have 2 Fedora 29 servers, both have been running bacula succesfully for years
through many upgrades.I was asked for a new LTO-3 volume on one, and it failed
as above. I assumed the tape was bad so tried another with the same result. I
then tried these 2 tapes on the second server, different tape drive completely,
and it fails the same way.
I tested it with Testing Your Tape Drive With Bacula

What gives? Same failure with different tapes in different tape drives on
different servers right at the same time!!??
Thanks
