Dear all
I compiled and installed a new version of bareos.(V20.0.1). The problem of
unloading the tape persists. I traced it down offline command in the
mtx-changer script, i.e. the command
mt -f /dev/nst0 offline
hangs and eventually bareos kills the script.
If I run mt from command line, mt
I have set offline =1 and ran a backup job. I could not mount the drive
from bconsole (Fatal error: 3992 Bad autochanger "load slot 12, drive 0":
ERR=Child exited with code 1),
so I did this manually with mtx.
Then I ran the backup job that failed

Have you tried playing with those values?
It seems a good place to start.
By default they're defined in /etc/bareos/mtx-changer.conf

1) I gave it a try. Using the mtx-changer script directly (without using
bconsole after booting up) seems to work. I mounted a tape via the script
and then umounted it:
./mtx-changer /dev/changer1 unload 8 /dev/nst0 0
+ test ! -r /etc/bareos//mtx-changer.conf
+ . /etc/bareos//mtx-changer.con
If mtx runs fine. I'd try to run the mtx-changer script with bash "debug
mode" (bash -x mtx-changer...) and see what is it that the mtx hangs and
times out on.

Dear spadaj
I forgot to mention that mtx runs OK. It lives in /usr/sbin/mtx, and the
log files are in /var/bareos/working/. The logfiles are however empty.
mtx-changer script lives in /etc/bareos

Hi Tilman,
are you using Bareos 20 and have data-spooling enabled on the tape drive?
You may have hit a bug that will be fixed in the upcoming 20.0.1, then.
Best Regards,

Dear all,
I have ADIC DDS Tape library which no longer cleaner removes the tape from
the library. When I issue an umount command, I get an error message. With
an older version of bareos, it used to work. Any advice on how I can debug
and fix this?
