I have a tape library with two drives configured as follows in bacula-sd.conf.  I run 10 jobs every night and they always all run on Drive-1.  I'm now having a problem with that Drive and would like to force all jobs to run on Drive-2.  What's the easiest way to do that?


In bacula-sd.conf, place 'Autoselect = no' in the Device stanza of the drive that is malfunctioning. Be sure to unload any tape that may be in the drive before doing so. After updating bacula-sd.conf you will need to restart SD.


In addition, you can change the order in the Device list of the Autochanger resource, remove the faulty drive from the Autochanger device list.

In more recent versions, the storage daemon will do some round robin allocation to not use only the first device of the list. I don't remember exactly when it was introduced, I would suggest to look the ReleaseNotes.

Best Regards,

Eric
