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
