Hello I have a problem where bacula seem to be rejecting most of my tapes. I had lapsed using tapes for a couple of months as I was working remote due to covid. Recently, I re-started my tape backups and struggling as some tapes are working fine, but others are a pain.
For example, or jobs in the queue need tape 000006L6. I mounted it through bacula, it came online, went into initializing, but bacula unmount it and them mount tape 000118L6. That don't work out too and leave bacula in usable state as seen below: Device status: Autochanger "SuperLoader3" with devices: "ULTRIUM-HH7" (/dev/nst0) Device Tape is "ULTRIUM-HH7" (/dev/nst0) waiting for: Volume: 000118L6 Pool: eng_father Media type: LTO-6 Total Bytes Read=64,512 Blocks Read=1 Bytes/block=64,512 Positioned at File=0 Block=0 Device is BLOCKED waiting for mount of volume "000006L6", Pool: eng_father Media type: LTO-6 Slot 7 is loaded in drive 0. What would be the best way to work around this?
