This to me looks like the mtx-changer script is not able to talk to your autochanger properly. I had to modify the script to work with my autochanger, and this is appears to be by design (the mtx-changer script supplied is a default that you are meant to customise for your hardware) so I guess modifying this script is the next step. If the script was present and working with your old Bacula set up, that might be a good place to start looking to see what has changed. > ̣root@LTOMag scripts]# ./mtx-changer /dev/sg3 unload 1 /dev/st0 0 > Unloading drive 0 into Storage Element 1... > mtx: Request Sense: Sense Key=Illegal Request > MOVE MEDIUM from Element Address 256 to 4096 Failed I don't know much about low level autochanger commands, but it seems odd that telling the autochanger to put the tape in slot 1 results in a command asking it to put the tape in "element 4096", which the autochanger says is an illegal request. Maybe that's normal but it seems a bit weird. I would start by modifying mtx-changer to output the commands it's trying to run, and then running those commands manually, tweaking them until you figure out how they are supposed to work, and then applying those changes back to mtx-changer. This is assuming nobody else has posted a working mtx-changer script for your autochanger already of course! > I split my bacula-dir into components so here are the relevant ones Everything else here looks like it should be fine. Once you get mtx-changer working properly I think everything else should be fine.
