Second "free" answer: You are going in the wrong direction. You should have only one Device resource, as I believe I indicated in the last email. You need to learn what distinguish drives and slots and how to deal with them in Bacula. It isn't easy in the beginning so please read the autochanger chapter in the manual and ask the list for more help on resolving this ... Third "free" answer: PS: I think both the autochanger resource chapter and the autochanger chapter are translated into French or partically translated. They should be on the web site, but may be slightly out of date. Fourth "free" answer: You need to look at www.bacula.fr or www.bacula.org/fr or click on the French flag on www.bacula.org to get to the French translations.
