FYI The old backup software, Netvault was still set to start on boot. It must have locked the drive. I disconnected the Autoloader from the server, reset it, disabled Netvault and rebooted the server. All is good, bacula and I are back together.

We were doing so well, I started thinking about bacula in terms of a long term relationship.
Over the weekend we had a scheduled power outage. The tape drive and bacula server were properly shut down.
The
next time I tried to take out the tapes, there was an error message
displayed on the front panel of the autoloader: "magazine locked by host
system"
I had unmounted the tape first, the same as I've been doing all
along. I tried mounting, unmounting, release, powering down autoloader,
rebooting bacula server and so on many times but without success. I've
done a fair bit of searching for a resolution, but I can't seem to find a
way to unlock the magazine. I tried sg_prevent --allow --verbose
without success.
This is an HP 1/8 G2 Autoloader, bacula 5.12
I see just one
"TapeAlert[32] Interface: Problem with SCSI interface between tape drive
and initiator." error in the log, however I'm still able to
successfully backup, mount/unmount etc
I don't see any other errors in the logs. I'm going to harass HP, I
won't mention bacula. I thought I'd post to the list in case you've got
any suggestions, I'd really appreciate your thoughts.
