Hello,

I have been trying to configure Bacula to use a USB disk without
success. The backup process works fine as the file is saved in the
directory where the USB disk should be mounted but this (the usb disk
mount) never happens.

It looks like the mount command is never executed.

      * Mount and unmount commands work fine at the console.
      * bacula-sd is currently running as root so it isn't a permissions
        problem.

Thanks for the help.


Here is my bacula-sd Device configuration:

Device {
  Name = FileStorage
  Media Type = File
  Archive Device = /mnt/bacula
  Mount Point    = /mnt/bacula
  Mount Command = "/bin/mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/bacula"
  Unmount Command = "/bin/umount /mnt/bacula"
  LabelMedia = yes
  Random Access = Yes
  Automatic Mount = yes
  Removable Media = no
  AlwaysOpen = no
  Requires Mount = yes
}


With debug (bacula-sd running with -d100 option) I get the following
outputs:

*mount
