Hello,

It sounds to me like you are trying to force an Autochanger, which is a Bacula device that typically works with physical tape autochangers to work with USB keys. While this is possible (example disk-changer, virtual-changer), you need to either use an existing script or you need to understand the details of the Autochanger implementation.

There are two other possibilities:
1. The Bacula built-in virtual autochanger that has been discussed on this list a number of times, and rejected by a number of people, but it does work in large production environments.

I can confirm Kern's words - one of the largest Bacula build-in virtual autochanger configuration which I was implemented consist of 80 devices in a single autochanger. It works a far better then any disk-changer or vchanger scripts.

best regards
