Re: [Bacula-users] update slots reports Autochanger has 0 slots

Hi Ana,

in my case (a very, very dumb fault), the path in "changer command" was wrong. No error messages

hab been displayed, just the "Autochanger has 0 slots".....

br,

christian

Hello Ana,

What I recently experienced was "Autochanger has 0 slots" error when "AutoChanger = yes" line is missing in Device directive in bacula-sd.conf with Centos 6 and Bacula 5.2.13

Best regards,

Suleyman

Hello Rainer,

Can you try changing Device Name? You have Name and Media Type using the same "LTO-5". Bacula doesn´t work fine when you use the same name for different things. If you could, I recommend you setting name with "Drive-0" or something like this:

Autochanger {

Name = Autochanger

Device = Drive-0

Device {

Name = Drive-0

Drive Index = 0

Media Type = LTO-5

...

}

Best regards,

Ana

Hi Süleyman,

this is the current definition:

Autochanger {

Name = Autochanger

Device = LTO-5

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

Changer Device = /dev/changer

}

Device {

Name = LTO-5

Drive Index = 0

Media Type = LTO-5

Archive Device = /dev/nst0

AutomaticMount = yes;

AlwaysOpen = yes;

RemovableMedia = yes;

RandomAccess = no;

AutoChanger = yes

Alert Command = "sh -c 'tapeinfo -f %c |grep TapeAlert|cat'"

Spool Directory = /data/bacula-spool

Maximum File Size = 12GB

Maximum Spool Size = 3200G

# Maximum Block Size = 2000000

}

Do you have an other idea?

Rainer

Merhaba Can,

Maybe the Device directive in bacula-sd.conf, where the drives are defined, is missing AutoChanger = yes line.

Hi,

Check this posts:

http://www.freebsddiary.org/tape-library.php
http://www.freebsddiary.org/tape-library-integration.php

Same issue were discussed before. (http://sourceforge.net/p/bacula/mailman/bacula-users/thread/20130306100525.GD22024 AT nionex DOT net/)

Quoting Rainer Hackel <rainer.hackel AT degnerpartner DOT com>:

Hello Bacula users,

Have some problems with a Quantum SuperLoader 3 LTO-6, and try to break them down in small pieces… here is one:

“update slots“ command in bconsole says:

Automatically selected Catalog: MyCatalog

Using Catalog "MyCatalog"

Automatically selected Storage: Autochanger

Connecting to Storage daemon Autochanger at 192.168.1.15:9103 ...

3306 Issuing autochanger "slots" command.

Device "Autochanger" has 0 slots.

No slots in changer to scan.

But:

“/usr/libexec/bacula/mtx-changer /dev/changer slots” reports 16

Of course the Autochanger has 16 slots.

Someone has an idea?

Best regards

Rainer
