We're still experiencing the same problem I described last week (please see
below). The only update I can offer is that the problem is not dependent on the
specific tape drive. If all tapes are unloaded and bacula loads a volume into
drive0 (as opposed to drive1 as described below), then bacula still waits for
the drive to mount.
Are there any suggestions for a fix?
Thanks,
Mark

Subject: [Bacula-users] bacula does not mount tape that's already loaded
We're using Bacula 5.0.2 with a 2-drive tape library. Jobs are waiting on a
mount request for a tape that's already in the desired drive. The tape was
loaded by bacula (not manually), but does not get mounted.
Bacula and "mtx" both agree that the requested tape (004037) is in drive1, but
bacula does not automount the tape and it cannot be mounted manually.
The tape has been used previously, so it does not need to be labeled. The
option "AutomaticMount" is set to "yes" for both tape drives in
bacula-sd.conf.
This problem persists after restarting bacula-sd and bacula-dir.
If I unload the tape (release or umount w/in bacula, or via mtx), bacula
successfully reloads the tape into the correct drive, but it does not mount it.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Mark
