I can tell it to load and unload tapes using mtx, that's why this error is so
strange. I can see it change the tapes in the Dell Web interface. It puts the
tape into the drive then does nothing for 5 mins and spits out that error.
my scsi devices listed:
[root@backup001 ~]# lsscsi -g
[2:0:0:0]

I got past that point without changing the mtx script. But now I get a
different error when running the autochanger test in btape.
Do you wish to continue with the Autochanger test? (y/n): y
=== Autochanger test ===
3301 Issuing autochanger "loaded" command.
Slot 1 loaded. I am going to unload

Also when I try to label a Volume I get this:
Connecting to Storage daemon changer-sd at backup001.viamedia.co.za:9103 ...
Enter new Volume name:

Ok, so i've got it working now, but I run into 1 problem. When I run this:
# btape /dev/nst0
Tape block granularity is 1024 bytes.
btape: butil.c:285 Using device: "/dev/nst0" for writing.
03-Aug 10:49 btape JobId 0: 3301 Issuing autochanger "loaded? drive 0" command.
03-Aug 10:49 btape JobId 0: 33
Thanks guys, I'll give this a try and post back the results!

You might also find the following udev rules useful. Put the following in
/etc/udev/rules.d/60-persistent-storage-tape.rules (path may be different
for different distros, this is for opensuse).
# this file must have the same name as the file in /lib/udev/rules.d that
sets up the tape permissions,
We have the same setup, running on Debian.
The first things to do are:
* check that you can get your server and library/drive to communicate.
you can do that with mtx and mt
eg mtx -f /dev/sg4 status
eg mt -f /dev/nst0 status
* test your setup with btape

Hi
I've got a Dell Powervault 124T connected to a new server using SAS.
On the server I'm running CentOS 6 with Bacula 5.0.0 installed via YUM, the
current setup can backup to File and restore.
Now what I need to know, what is the first step to get the server to backup to
tape. How to define
