Bacula 5.0.1 and an HP MSL2024 changer.

The drive is empty and the tape I wish to restore from is resident in 
the library.

After choosing some files to restore, I get the following:

restore jobid="163" client="backup1-fd_arc" file="?restore_476707713_20" 
done

3 files selected to be restored.

Bootstrap records written to /var/bacula/library1-dir.restore.1.bsr

The job will require the following
    Volume(s)                 Storage(s)                SD Device(s)
===========================================================================

    *AR0011L4                  HP_MSL2024                HP_MSL2024 


Volumes marked with "*" are online.


3 files selected to be restored.



.mod restoreclient="backup1-fd_arc" fileset="Full Set" 
storage="HP_MSL2024" replace="never" when="2010-04-27 13:34:45" 
bootstrap="/var/bacula/library1-dir.restore.1.bsr" 
where="/mnt/storage1/bacula/restores" priority="10" yes
Job queued. JobId=168
.messages
27-Apr 13:35 library1-dir JobId 168: Start Restore Job 
RestoreFiles.2010-04-27_13.35.35_51

After waiting 10 minutes with no sign of activity - no prompting to 
mount tapes, issuing "messages" showing nothing, no running jobs ahead 
in the queue, I then manually mount AR0011L4 and the job bursts into 
life and completes.

Why did I need to manually mount the tape?

Regards,

Richard
