Hi Russ,
First of all, you said that you have LTO-6 tapes. So, I recomend you
specify it in your Device name definition, that will avoid some confusion
in the future:
Device {
Name = ML6000-LTO6-0
...
}
A second question is: don't you have barcodes? Are you sure you're going to
work without barcode labels? If you're not going to work with barcodes, you
should use the "label" command for labeling the tapes (before you should
guarantee they are ready for labeling with mt -f /dev/st0 rewind and weof).
The add command, as it tells you when you run it, doesn't labeled your
volumes and you need this.
So, use the "label" or "label barcodes" commands, they will label your
volumes and records them corretly in the bacula catalog (MediaId, name,
slot, inchanger flag, etc.)
Regards,
Ana
