Tried: *unmount storage=DLT Take the tape out of the DLT, and put it back in *mount storage=DLT Status output still contains this: Device status: Device "FileStorage" (/home/bacula/db) is not open or does not exist. Device "DLT" (/dev/nsa0) is mounted with Volume="DLT7000-JNY227" Pool="Default" Device is BLOCKED waiting for media. Total Bytes Read=64,512 Blocks Read=1 Bytes/block=64,512 Positioned at File=0 Block=0 I fear a restart of the SD is the only resort I have. But not yet... I can wait for further suggestions. thanks -- Dan Langille : Software Developer looking for work my resume: http://www.freebsddiary.org/dan_langille.php _______________________________________________ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users
