[Bacula-users] RE: Bacula-sd crashes (bacula ver 1.38.2)

[Stephen Kennedy]

I had the same problem when I upgraded from v1.36.  Once I defined and used an Autoloader resource things worked fine for me.  Here are my resource records:

bacula-sd:

Device {
 Maximum Changer Wait = 120
 Name = "EXABYTE VXA-2 PacketLoader"
 Archive Device = /dev/nst0  Media Type = "VXA Packet Tape"
 Autochanger = Yes
# Changer Device = /dev/sg0
# Changer Command = "/usr/etc/bacula/mtx-changer %c %o %S %a %d"  Always Open = Yes
 Removable Media = Yes
 Random Access = No
 Minimum Block Size = 1024
 Maximum Block Size = 1024
 Hardware End of Medium = No
 Fast Forward Space File = No
 Backward Space Record = No  Backward Space File = Yes
 Forward Space Record = Yes
 Forward Space File = Yes
 Offline On Unmount = Yes
 Label Media = Yes
 Spool Directory = /mnt/disc/hda/part1/VXA-spool
}

Autochanger {
 Name = "EXABYTE VXA 1x10 1U"
 Device = "EXABYTE VXA-2 PacketLoader"
 Changer Device = /dev/sg0  Changer Command = "/usr/etc/bacula/mtx-changer %c %o %S %a %d"
}

and bacula-dir:

Storage {
   Name = "VXA-2"
   Address = x.x.x.x
   Password = "passwdhere"
   Device = "EXABYTE VXA 1x10 1U"
   MediaType = "VXA Packet Tape"
   Autochanger = "yes"
}

Hope this helps.
