Robert,
did you solve this? What tape / library are you using? We are just about to
start using a number of LTO4 drives,so this will be something we'd want to
test.
btw, what happens if you rewind the tape manually? (ie, unmount @ bacula, mt
-f /dev/nst0 rewind && mtx -f /dev/xxx unload x, then load in bacula again.
Is bacula writing while the reboot happens?
cheers,
B
