Hi!
I want to replace Arkeia 4 with bacula 1.36.3 running on a Solaris 2.6
machine with a HP C5713A DDS 4 autochanger. I think I've already managed
to configure everything but bacula failes very often because it's not
able to run mtx-changer properly. It looks like the device is busy. I'm

Think this is worth raising as possible feature request?
I can probably do the work myself for something this simple :)

Thanks. That's a useful tip.

Ok, using the ide-tape driver isn't an option as it seems.
But i'm still interessted in using the ide-scsi driver. Wether it is
reliable enough for a working bacula environment or not, i can only
figure out, when i get the drive running. I don't have much critical
data, so a failing job won't do

I've thought about a couple of solutions which bypass the manual modification

I'm inclined to agree with Phil Thomas and your own comments.
Since the FileSet we use includes the 'readfifo' option, why not:
never overwrite an existing fifo if this option is set on a restore operation?

This is sort like something I was thinking about. It would pretty

Using a loopback would work fine for a read/write filesystem. I do that
all the time.
Maybe I read too much into it, but
