Another update: I changed the record in the database to reflect the way the barcode reads the volume, and it seems to be recognized, however, it is listed as LTO2 and as such, the library can not find a suitable device to read the tape. Although LTO3 can read LTO2 tapes. Has this been addressed in

More info on this. I put one of the old tapes in the new library and the barcode reader reads it differently then the old one does. The new library attaches L2 to the volume name. I would guess if this is not the case then Bacula would not have a problem. So before I go through the database and ren
