HI,
I had a tape which bacula failed to write on so I did mt erase and
relabeled it with label command and started to reuse it, what happened
is that I got this error from bacula after it wrote several jobs on the
tape
Error: Unable to position to end of data on device "/dev/tape".
ERR=dev.c:494 ioctl MTEOM error on /dev/tape. ERR=Input/output error.
what does this mean ?
This is just a guess, but Magnetic Tape End Of Media error. In other words,
you have run off the end of the tape, without Bacula having received an end
of media signal.
This happens regularly with worn-out DAT media here.
Replace the tape.
