Hi all,

Apologies but my google skills have failed me, hopefully I can catch 
someone in a happy end of working week mood.

Just wondering if anyone has used an old IBM TS3100 with Bacula and got 
it to recognise tapes that are in the IO Station?

I'm running Bacula 5.2.5 on Ubuntu 12.04.  If I run an mtx status 
command I get something like the following:

Storage Changer /dev/sg11:1 Drives, 24 Slots ( 1 Import/Export )
Data Transfer Element 0:Full (Storage Element 3 Loaded):VolumeTag = NPC282L2
       Storage Element 1:Full :VolumeTag=NPC281L2

<snip>

       Storage Element 23:Full :VolumeTag=NPC305L2
       Storage Element 24 IMPORT/EXPORT:Full :VolumeTag=NPC280L2

So I can see all 24 slots + the tape in the drive (from slot 3). Bacula 
seems completely blind to Storage Element 24.

If I run update slots in bconsole the 24th slot is missing:

3306 Issuing autochanger "slots" command.
Device "IBM" has 24 slots.
Connecting to Storage daemon Autochanger ...
3306 Issuing autochanger "list" command.
Catalogue record for Volume "NPC281L2" updated to reference slot 1.

<snip>

Catalogue record for Volume "NPC305L2" updated to reference slot 23.


Its not a massive problem but it has been bugging me for a while. If 
anyone has any ideas it would be appreciated.
