we are using Bacula on a Linux 2.6.18-238.5.1.el5PAE system, and have a Dell
TL-2000 two drives (dev/nst0 and dev/nst1) autochanger. Bacula runs fine but we
always encounter a tape error writing final EOF when using drive 1. There is an
error message regarding the tape EOF, the tape does not fill up, bacula mounts
the next tape, and continues the backup. The job finishes correctly. What is
noticeable is that a part of the error message is identical (dev.c:1745 ioctl)
and the error seems to appears at the same block (c:577) for 2 different tapes
as shown below. The amount of data written to each tape varies before the error
happening. I do not know if it makes a difference but just wanted to mention
it. What could be the cause of this problem ?
below are the logs:
