OMG... The only reason the script started failing was a different device assignment caused by a reboot: ls -al /dev | grep sg. crw-rw---- 1 root tape 21, 0 Jun 19 12:25 sg0 crw-rw---- 1 root disk 21, 1 Jun 12 17:42 sg1 Once I've changed sg1 to sg0 it started working like a charm again :)
Hello Adam, I am glad you found it. It should have been the first thing I recommended to check. 🤷🤦You might be interested in my `mtx-changer-python.py` drop-in replacement for the `mtx-changer` script and/or my `bacula-tapealert.py` drop-in replacement for the `tapealert` script that Bacula ships with.
Both determine the /dev/sg# node automatically, on-the-fly, preventing this issue with Bacula when a /dev/sg# node changes after a reboot.
The `bacula-tapealert.py` currently requires the Python `doctopt` module but I will swap that out and replace it with `argparse` shortly. I have already done this for the `mtx-changer-python.py` and a couple other scripts.
Hope this helps, Bill -- Bill Arlofski w...@protonmail.com
