Hello Patti,

Could you please check to see if the Bacula in the public repo in Branch-9.4 has corrected this problem.  The code currently in that branch will be released as version 9.4.2 once I fix
one or two more bugs.

The change I made was to disable that warning message unless you specifically use the
-v (verbose) option when starting the SD.

Best regards,
Kern

Thank you to everyone that replied.  The disable storage command did what was 
needed.  One issue with using it is the obnoxious noise produced by the 
director in every job that was initially assigned the disabled drive.  Kern, 
this is beyond ridiculous.

And it goes on for pages and pages until the job is assigned an available drive.

Hi Patti, There is an enable/disable command to do this: * disable storage=xxxx drive=yyyy A status storage will show this drive disabled by "User command":
     ----8<----
     Device File: "speedy_drv_0" (/path/to/device/0) is not open.
        Device is disabled. User command.
        Drive 0 is not loaded.
        Available Space=xxxx GB
     ----8<----
To enable it again: * enable storage=xxxx drive=yyyy I do not believe the disable is permanent.. ie: it will not survive an SD
     restart, but it should help in your situation.
Hope this help. Best regards, Bill --
