Hi there,

I upgraded Bacula from 5.0.3-2 to 5.2.13. It has no problem to run a backup job and back data directly on to USB device except "Autochanger" setting. I was trying to configure "Autochanger" to swap USB drives automatically for data backup in order that I need not to manual exchange and mount HDD when one HDD is full.

I got below errors when trying below commands.

#Bacula is running as root
[root@backupsys bacula]# /etc/bacula/mtx-changer /etc/bacula/usbchanger1.conf list
/etc/bacula/usbchanger1.conf is not an sg device, or old sg driver

[root@backupsys bacula]# su bacula /etc/bacula/mtx-changer /etc/bacula/usbchanger1.conf list
cannot open SCSI device '/etc/bacula/usbchanger1.conf' - Permission denied

Also tried to run bacula as ID bacula but failed too

Testing this stuff is hard. So i wrote about it. Rather than start a long back and forth discussion, I suggest you follow what I did and raise a question when something I did doesn’t work for you.

Hope that gets you going.

It is all permissions. It’s almost always about permission. Scripts. Devices. Daemons. Etc.
