hi, Trying to get bacula going at a single tape drive. So no autoloader as bacula seems to be used for in most cases.
A few questions. Maybe i should do 3 emails. But let's ask the questions in 1. Output at end of email If i do a tapeinfo i see "Medium Type: Not Loaded" that with a tape inside (otherwise the other info wouldn't be correct either i'd guess). If i google i see others with other brands tapedrives do not have this problem. Does that mean tape driver has a problem for this tapedrive? And if so: is it a problem? I wonder whether it has relevance for next: how do i label a tape to be used for bacula? As that's the most important question. I already had put an EOF on the tape. The tapes have been previously used with a different tape program in the same streamer - this one works. Third: i see here running bacula-sd and bacula-dir under user bacula and bacula-fd under root. Is that ok? Thanks for giving any insight.
