Hi,

I think this setting is not good  "Media Type = Ultrium-LTO3". 
I have this in my setup: " Media Type = LTO-3".

Below is my configuration of my SD:
------------------------------------------------
Autochanger {
 Name = Dell-PV124T
 Device = ULTRIUM-TD3
 Changer Command = "/etc/bacula/scripts/mtx-changer %c %o %S %a %d"
 Changer Device = /dev/sg4
}

Device {
 Name = ULTRIUM-TD3
 Drive Index = 0
 Media Type = LTO-3
 Archive Device = /dev/st0
 AutomaticMount = yes;               # when device opened, read it
 AlwaysOpen = yes;
 RemovableMedia = yes;
 Offline On Unmount = no;
 RandomAccess = no;
 AutoChanger = yes
  # Enable the Alert command only if you have the mtx package loaded
 Alert Command = "sh -c 'tapeinfo -f %c |grep TapeAlert|cat'"
}

------------------------------------------------

Objet : [Bacula-users] Who is right about the tape size: Bacula or the 
tapeloader??

Hi,

we are using a Tandberg autchanger with eight LTO3 tapes, which could save 
400/800 GB of data.

Herre is the definition of the device in bacula-sd.conf:

Device {
  Name = Drive-1           
  Media Type = Ultrium-LTO3
  Archive Device = /dev/st0
  AutomaticMount = yes;    
  AlwaysOpen = yes;
  RemovableMedia = yes;
  RandomAccess = no;
  AutoChanger = yes
  Spool Directory = /var/spool/bacula
  Maximum Spool Size = 100G
  Maximum Block Size = 65536
  Maximum Network Buffer Size = 65536
}

and one of the volume definitions:

Pool {
  Name = Mittwoch
  Pool Type = Backup
  Recycle = yes
  AutoPrune = yes
  Volume Retention = 8 days
  Maximum Volume Bytes = 800G
  Maximum Volumes = 2
  Maximum Volume Jobs = 18
  RecyclePool = Mittwoch
}

But no matter which tape we use, after 240 - 250 GB of data Bacula want's us to 
change the tape, because it is reported as full.

How can we find out whether Bacula or the Tapeloader uses the wrong size for 
the tapes?

Thanks for any hints or suggestions,

Stefan
