Hello,

I proposed an ugly workaround in my previous post.
The "update slots" will update the Slot, InChanger flag and StorageId for all of your medias.
I would like to add that if your "old" medias do not have barcode labels, you should use "update slots scan". This will instruct bacula to read the volume label rather than the barcode.

Best regards,
Ana

Hello,

I recommend that ou move up to a more recent version of Bacula. We have
improved the code that does "update slots" in later versions.

Best regards,
Kern
