The times they are a-changing, but my Dell Autochanger sure
isn't...
I'm working at getting an initial install of bacula up and
running. My backup server is a Dell R510 running CentOS 7.0,
which has bacula version 5.2.13-18 in the yum repository. I'm
using mysql for the data base. We're going to be writing to a
Dell ML6000 (a re-labeled IBM Ultrium TD6) with LTO-6 tapes,
which hold 2.5TB native. There is one tape drive and 40 tape
slots in the Dell autochanger, with 30 new, unused tapes in
them.
I've got the director successfully talking to the database and
the local file daemon. I believe that the storage daemon is
successfully talking to the autochanger
Did you tested your configuration with btape? If not do it and apply all recomendation. With btape you can test both drive and autochanger configuration.
and the tape drive
because in bconsole, I was able to add the tapes to the
Default pool: *add pool=Default storage=ML6000-LTO3-0 You probably don't want to be using this command since it creates database records without labeling the Volumes. You probably want to use the "label" command.
Did you read above message?
It say that you should use a label command instead of add. Please folow this recomendation. The label command will add tapes to your Bacula configuration. Add command has a different purpose.
If your tape library support barcodes and you have a barcode labels on your tapes then you can use a label barcodes command to successfully label all required tapes.
Now when I attempt a local backup, here's what I get:

This errors exists because you did not use a label command.
I built my bacula-sd.conf file from what I saw at:
