Hello Bacula users,

we run bacula backup for a while now. We had to replace our Tandberg Tape-Library (StorageLoader LTO-5) by a Quantum device (Superloader LTO-6) and have some problems now. Maybe someone can help.

 

First problem:

Starting Bacula this way doesn’t work anymore:

cd /etc/init.d

./bacula-dir start

 

Starting this way works fine:

cd /etc/init.d

bacula-dir /etc/bacula/bacula-dir.conf

 

I could live with that, but I wonder why this happened…

 

 

Next problem:

bconsole

update slots

Result:

…

3306 Issuing autochanger "slots" command.

Device "Autochanger" has 0 slots.

No slots in changer to scan.

 

But:

/usr/libexec/bacula/mtx-changer /dev/sg1 list 0 /dev/nst0 0

Or

/usr/libexec/bacula/mtx-changer /dev/sg1 slots

Or

/usr/libexec/bacula/mtx-changer /dev/sg1 load 3 /dev/nst0 0

All works fine, shows amount of slots and also the labels of stored tapes.

 

 

Entry in bacula-sd.conf:

Autochanger {

  Name = Autochanger

  Device = LTO-5

  Changer Command = "/usr/libexec/bacula/mtx-changer %c %o %S %a %d"

  Changer Device = /dev/changer

}

 

 

Rights on /dev:

lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 3 Dec  2 09:38 changer -> sg1

crwxrwxrwx. 1 root tape 21, 1 Dec  2 09:38 sg1

 

It would be great if someone could help.

Rainer
