Your autochanger does not reference any of the 'drive' devices that should be under its management.

oh

Additionally, your 'drive' device 'filestorage' is set to 'readonly = yes'. This is only good if you want to reserve a drive for restores or verify jobs or something like that. Will not work for backups.

Don't ask me where *that* flag came from! no clue ... thanks
See this example from my synology-based file changer setup, in bacula 15.0.2. I have multiple drive devices under one autochanger. Pretend that this is a physical tape library, with multiple tape drives. That might help it make more sense. Devices 'Synology-Local-001' through 005 are read/write devices. Device Synology-Local-006 is a readonly device, because it is intended to be used only with restores. This way a drive is always available for a restore when you want to do one.

At this point, your Storage {} resource from the bacula-dir is very much like mine from my synology system. I think it's probably good. It should refer to the autochanger name, not the individual drive devices under the autochanger.

I can provide a full redacted dump of my configs if that would help.

Thanks a lot for your example, I try to mimic it for 20 minutes now.

You know, in my case it's one directory on the filesystem, containing files as Volumes (?)

I looked up backups of my working config and took the parts from there, adjusted a job: same errors. Oh my.

I remember some issue where editing "Autochanger = somename" to "=yes" and that solved it. I am not sure if this is the same situation right now.

I will look up a server config at a customer where I haven't touched things for months.
