Thanks, it seems to be working:
btape -c bacula-sd.conf /dev/nst0
Tape block granularity is 1024 bytes.
btape: butil.c:290-0 Using device: "/dev/nst0" for writing.
btape: btape.c:478-0 open device "Quantum LTO-8 HH" (/dev/nst0): OK
*
Does it mean I should disable bacula-sd service on startup?
On the legacy system that I'm replacing (Debian 7 / Bacula 5.2.6 /
LTO-4) it's running and auto starts on boot:
service bacula-sd status
[ ok ] bacula-sd is running.

Hello Adam,
Please make sure that the bacula-sd process is not running. It is
probable that it is locking the drive so that other processes cannot
access it.
lsof -w | grep /dev/nst
bacula-sd 997 bacula 3r CHR
9,128 0t0 218 /dev/nst0
bacula-sd 997 1024 bacula-sd bacula 3r CHR
9,128 0t0 218 /dev/nst0
^^^^^ And here is the proof ^^^^^ :)
cat /etc/bacula/bacula-sd.conf | grep /dev | grep -v ^#
Archive Device = /dev/nst0
Changer Device = /dev/st0
Additionally, you will not set a changer device for a stand-alone tape
drive. The human is the "Changer Device" in these cases. :)
What's the reason for my error and how to fix it?
Please see above. :)
Best regards,
Bill
