Hi,

we've 2 tape libraries (tl) with one media changer for each tl.

tl-1 type LTO-4
tl-2 type LTO-5

At the moment we use LTO-4 tapes for both tl.

In bacula we've configured them using the following media type setting:

tl-1: LTO4
tl-2: LTO5

Our differential and incremental jobs use tl-1 and tl-2 as storage.
Now we want to use VirtualFull to create a new full backup once every month.

The VirtualFulls should be written to tl-2.

For all jobs written on tl-2 the VirtualFull is created corrently.
But for all jobs written on tl-1 the VirtualFull stops with this error
message:

acquire.c:117 Changing read device. Want Media Type="LTO5" have="LTO4"
device="tl-1" (/dev/nst2)
05-Mar 09:27 backup-sd JobId 12891: Fatal error: acquire.c:166 No
suitable device found to read Volume "XXXX"

Why does bacula want the media type LTO5?
