Hi Arno
This has taken a while but here come mtx and bacula-sd.conf:
As to the btape test results:
I can't find my files with the results at the moment (oops...), but I have the print-outs here:
I reviewed them again (as I already did when I started with the autochanger) and there is really not a single error whatsoever.
I did the normal test for the drive as such and the test for the autochanger. Both succeded fine.
If you can find anything, answers would be very appreciated!
Thanks again + Best Regards,
Christoff Buch
