Good Afternoon,
I am having a problem with Bacula utilizing all the drives in my Quantum Scalar 50 Tape Library. I added a print to /var/log/messages to see what was being passed to the mtx-changer script and it only has references to the 1st drive, never seems to look or ask about either of the other two drives.
Far as I can tell I have set it up with the correct values in the correct places. I am running Bacula 3.0. On a FreeBSD 7.0 platform. After running with it just using the 1st drive I tried labeling 2 new tapes in the library and when asked what drive to use I listed the 2nd drive which it used without issue or error, so Bacula is able to see and use the the other drives. Why will it not automatically use the other drives. Do I need to specify which drive to use, or can Bacula decide to use a free drive on its own. Which is how I expected it to work.
Any an all assistance is greatly appreciated.
