[Bacula-users] seldom working tape (auto)mount (stating user unmounted)
2009-01-15 09:25:22
Dear List,
We have a Seagate Scorpion DAT DDS-4 STD2401LW Internal SCSI Tape Drive
(single slot).
I have set Bacula to automount tapes. It does this sometimes but mostly
I have to manually mount tapes.
For some reason it does not automount although automount=yes is defined
in Bacula's config. No info in logs on the subject afaik and also no
email warning that the job cannot run due to a not mounted tape.
When I look at the status through bconsole the SD claims that the drive
is "user unmounted".
We run 3 jobs every night (in this sequence):
1. backup server
2, verify
3. backup catalog
the last job has a postjob ejecting the tape.
postjob Script:
#! /bin/sh
/etc/bacula/scripts/delete_catalog_backup
echo "unmount DDS-4" | /usr/bin/bconsole -c /etc/bacula/bconsole.conf
mt -f /dev/st0 rewind
mt -f /dev/st0 eject
exit 0
Obviously I can use a cronjob or a prejob on the first job to mount the
tape, but I prefer to tackle the issue of ignoring the automount. Any
ideas please on how I can tackle this issue?
