Hello,From the error message printed by Bacula (in German) I would strongly
suspect that something caused a reset on the drive or the auto changer. This
can happen if two processes are using the changer at the same time and someone
is issuing a smartctl or another such program.I would recommend that you enable
Bacula's TapeAlert code, which is not on by default. It will keep a record of
any tape alerts, which could help you track down the problem.I would also
recommend that you do two cleanings of each drive. One cleaning is not always
sufficient (or more correctly said, one cleaning did not resolve a tape proble
I had on an LTO-4 drve).Best regards,KernSent from my Samsung Galaxy smartphone.

many more data on this tape:Write failed at block 12611722. stat=-1 ERR=Auf dem

on drive 0 only a stored size of 475 MByte.I would like to check FC connection
for lip resets, error stats and so on.I checked the "files" in
/sys/class/fc_host/host?/statistics but all which couldhave a problem value
shows me only 0x0 values.So my first guess is there is no really problem on the
hba-drive-connections.I will now try to clean the drive with a fresh cleaning
tape and use btapeagain for a test. I think I will not get big different
result, but it'sa
try.Cheers,Pierre_______________________________________________Bacula-users
