hi
I came across a problem recently after installing a new single tape
drive for backups. This is a HPE LTO-8 Ultrium machine connected to a
Redhat linux box: Linux swlx1.rdg.ac.uk 3.10.0-862.9.1.el7.x86_64
The problem occured whilst performing a backup that consists of several
millions of fil
Actually it was not a tape problem it seems, when the server rebooted
after the power failure the device names nst0 and nst1 switched which
physical device they linked to. Using persistent names with udev rules
fixed the problem and backups are running again.
Thanks
Kevin
