Autochanger {

  #Name = "Dell-124T"

  Name = turing

  Device = LTO-2

  Changer Command = "/var/lib/bacula/mtx-changer %c %o %S %a %d"

  Changer Device = /dev/sg1

}

 

Device {

  Name = LTO-2

  Drive Index = 0

}

 

I have tried changing sg0 to nst0 and st0, the best I can get is a 3903 ERR.

 

For some reason I can’t write to the tape. I am running udev,  and with the config set to sg0/sg1, bacula waits for a mount request and then times out.

 

I have tried using mount and umount, but that just BLOCKED the media.

 

I have tried so many different combinations I am not sure what to do next.

 

Ideas? Need more info? I have restarted the tape drive and the software many times. Also, I thought it might need hald so I installed that but haven’t rebooted yet. Do I need hald?

 

Thanks.
