Ah I see, you need the /dev/sg* equivalent for the /dev/st* in use. Can you copy the udev rules that produce symlinks for the autochangers (see link in my last post) and tweak them so that they also work for the drives themselves? It looks like they pick up anything that's a "type 8" device so if you duplicate the rule but change it to whatever type number that tape drives are, presumably you'd end up with the same result. > My only other idea is that maybe you could create a script that rewrites > the bacula-sd.conf every boot by parsing the output of this command as it > shows which sg* devices correspond to the st* ones: If you wanted to do that it might be easier to have the script create/update symlinks in /dev so you don't need to rewrite the Bacula config file. But this is pretty much what udev does already so better to get that working if you can.
