I have a weird issue that I cannot seem to figure out what is wrong.

I have some backups that failed due to bacula wanting to load a tape
that is not currently in the autochanger.

I have tried several things such as update slots, update slots scan,
update volume to change the inchanger flag.

Here is the error message :

version : vicenza.lan.lexum.pri-dir Version: 2.4.3 (10 October 2008)
i686-redhat-linux-gnu redhat Enterprise release

my bacula-sd config file:

Autochanger {
   Name = Autochanger
   Device = LTO
   Changer Command = "/usr/lib/bacula/mtx-changer %c %o %S /dev/st0 %d"
   Changer Device = /dev/sg1
}

Device {
   Name = LTO
   Drive Index = 0
   Media Type = DDS-4
   Archive Device = /dev/st0
   AutomaticMount = yes
   AlwaysOpen = yes
   RemovableMedia = yes
   RandomAccess = no
   AutoChanger = yes
   Spool Directory = /bacula/tapes/SPOOLDIR
}

My question is what can be done so that bacula knows what tapes are in
the autochanger ? because when this happens no other backups will work
until I restart the SD daemon(such as backup to another pool), and if I
run a backup from that pool it still errors out since the volume is not
there.

regards,

Pascal
