Hello !
I have bacula Version: 5.2.1.
I want to backup datas on a autoloader quantum i80 with 2 drives.
What OS are you using? That can affect the configuration.
The bacula test works correctly:
root@backup1:~# btape -c bacula-sd.conf /dev/nst0 .
btape: btape.c:476 open device "Drive-i80-1" (/dev/nst0): OK
*test
...
We should be in file 5. I am at file 5. This is correct!
Do you wish to continue with the Autochanger test? (y/n): y
=== Autochanger test ===
The test autochanger worked!!
But when I run a job I have this mess :
15-Nov 23:33 backup1-sd JobId 3: Writing spooled data to Volume. Despooling 107,374,192,579 bytes ?
Do small local jobs work? When setting up a new install, I prefer to start small and increase job size later.
By small local, I mean back up the machine upon which the SD is located. To keep things simple, do not use spooling for that job.
15-Nov 23:56 backup1-sd JobId 3: Fatal error: Unable to write EOF. ERR=dev.c:1551 ioctl MTWEOF error on "Drive-i80-1" (/dev/nst0). ERR=Input/output error.
There's lots in Google about this error, but I stopped looking when I didn't locate a suggestion right away.
There were suggestions to activate a sleep in the mtx-changer file. However, it seems that writing has already occurred by the time this error has occurred. The sleep command is usually added to let the tape mount full complete before writing starts.

Usually, these errors indicate a network problem?. but with the error above, I think not.
15-Nov 23:56 backup1-dir JobId 3: Error: Bacula backup1-dir 5.2.1 (30Oct11):
This is my conf :
Autochanger {
Name = i80
Device = Drive-i80-1, Drive-i80-2
#Changer Command = "/home/kern/bacula/bin/mtx-changer %c %o %S %a %d"
Changer Command = "/etc/bacula/mtx-changer %c %o %S %a %d"
# %c = changer device
# %o = command (unload|load|loaded|list|slots)
# %S = slot index (1-based)
# %a = archive device (i.e., /dev/sd* name for tape drive)
# %d = drive index (0-based)
Changer Device = /dev/sg3
}
Device {
Name = Drive-i80-1
Drive Index = 0
##Device Type = Tape
Media Type = LTO5
Archive Device = /dev/nst0
Autochanger = yes
LabelMedia = no;
AutomaticMount = yes;
AlwaysOpen = yes;
# RemovableMedia = yes;
# RandomAccess = no;
Spool Directory = /data/bacula/spool
After you get writes working, consider using different directories for each drive. I can't recall why or even if this is a good suggestion.
Maximum Spool Size = 100 G #
# Autoselect = yes
Maximum Changer Wait = 6000
Alert Command = "sh -c 'tapeinfo -f %c |grep TapeAlert|cat'"
}
Device {
Name = Drive-i80-2
Drive Index = 1
## Device Type = Tape
Media Type = LTO5
Archive Device = /dev/nst1
Autochanger = yes
LabelMedia = no;
AutomaticMount = yes;
AlwaysOpen = yes;
# RemovableMedia = yes;
# RandomAccess = no;
Spool Directory = /data/bacula/spool
Maximum Spool Size = 100 G #
# Autoselect = yes
Maximum Changer Wait = 6000
Alert Command = "sh -c 'tapeinfo -f %c |grep TapeAlert|cat'"
}
