Well, If I start bacula without any tapes loaded, then bacula-sd will loop for about one hour / drive before I can connect to it, so I make sure the drive has tapes before starting. > > There are certain limitations in version 1.38.x, that are explained in the > release notes I think -- mainly, if a tape is in drive 2 and Bacula is > writing on drive 1 and then wants to write on the tape that is in drive 2, it > will unload it from drive 2 and load it into drive 1 -- it works, but is not > optimal. Ok, I see forward to 1.39.x , but since I mess up my database when I test my own builds, I wait for an blastwawe build. :-) http://www.blastwave.org/packages.php/bacula is at 1.38.11 but as you said , nothing different in this case. best regards. /birre ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
