Seems to me none of this is necessary. Is there some reason that
AlwaysOpen = no and OfflineOnUnmount = yes or something similar would
not work? Or does AlwaysOpen not actually unmount, just release the tape?

Kevin is right, you probably should do a release instead of an unmount.
Below is an admin job definition that is running on a windows director.
All it does in call a script that releases the tape.
##########################
# ReleaseTape
##########################
Job {
Name = ReleaseTape
Type = Admin
Level = Full
Client = comp-fd
Fileset = None
Messages = Standard
Schedule = Daily_Backup
Pool = Tape-daily
Spool Data= ""
Priority = 101
RunBeforeJob = "\"c:/program files/bacula/bin/adminjob.cmd\" ReleaseTape"
}

Hi Keith,
I run an admin job before my run, and after. I have an autoloader,
but I think you should be able to do the same. Possibly have the
first admin job do a
echo 'mount quit' | bconsole
and the last job do a
echo 'unmount quit' |bconsole
mt -f device eject
Are you running this as a before job in bacula or with cron?
Thanks

Hi,
My Bacula server is about 40 miles away and I rely on normal users
to change tapes each day (iv trained them well!). However each day I
am having to login to bconsole and type mount then select LTO-3 and
then after the job has finished I have to login again and umount
LTO-3 and then exit bconsole and type "mt eject" so it spits the
tape out.
Is there any way I can automate this process? So they can just put a
tape in bacula will mount it do the backup umount and eject the tape
after it has finished doing the backup.
Many Thanks
