In both options stop bacula-sd before proceeding and you can start it again after this procedure completes. The first is to wipe the label on each tape: Basically use mtx or the autochanger controls to load each tape one by one and do the following two commands to erase the label from the tape: mt -f /dev/st0 rewind mt -f /dev/st0 weof replace /dev/st0 with your tape device if it is different. There is a discussion of this here: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg16850.html This method will erase the label so that label barcodes will be able to put a new label on each tape. Now the second is to scan the tapes and import them back into the catalog: http://www.bacula.org/en/dev-manual/Volume_Utility_Tools.html#SECTION003970000000000000000 bscan -s -m -c bacula-sd.conf -v -V Vol001\|Vol002\|Vol003 /dev/nst0 And in your case the volumes will be B27715\|B27687\|B27684\|B27679 Dont forget the \ before the | This will read all data that was written to these tapes so it can take a long time. With this option you do not want to label barcodes after it is done.
