Hello,
I am running bacula henbane-dir Version: 1.36.3 (22 April 2005) on
FreeBSD 5.4 and running into a problem. The jobs get hung up due to
either DEVICE BLOCKED message and/or cannot find appendable volume
message.
I insert a new tape and format it using the mt command ( I know mt weof
should work too but I do long format in this case to be sure). After
the mt format is done I labeled the tape in bconsole and I can see it in
list volumes.
| 17 | Tape_73 | Append | 1 | 0 |
31,536,000 | 1 | 0 | 1 | DLT | 0000-00-00
00:00:00 |
When I manually mount the tape in bconsole it mounts fine and then the
job attempts to continue but it always says
07-Nov 06:50 henbane-sd: Job henbane.2005-10-30_01.05.00 waiting. Cannot
find any appendable volumes.
Please use the "label" command to create a new Volume for:
Storage: DLT4000
Media type: DLT
Pool: Default
It works for the most part but every now and then I get these DEVICE
BLOCKED or cannot find appendable volume errors and I don't know how to
fix them. I thought adding a freshly formatted and labeled tape would
be the appropriate action?
I purchased a bunch of new DLT tapes in the hopes that this will fix the
problems since some of the tape I have been using since 1999!
Here is one of my bacula-dir.conf's from a setup that gets hung up like
this:
