Hello Marco,
thanks for your comment, i have set the drive index, but thought
mistakenly that i need to change it - so i renumbered.
My fault, but thanks :)
But it would be a nice feature to get drives disabled at runtime - for
maintenance or other reasons, so i look forward for an implementation in
the near future ;)

Hello,
we got a new big tapelib, but one of the 5 LTO6 Drives is defective. I
have tried to exclude it in the Config till it gets repaired, but that
doesn't work - bareos still puts cartridges into Drive 1, because it
thinks its the Drive2 (since commented out Drive1). So is there a better
way to exclude on runtime a drive from usage?
I think your trick with commenting out will work better when you explicitly
set the drive index of each drive in the library. Then you don't get that
drive2 is addressed as drive 1 in the library. What you now probably get
is that the drives get automatically assigned a drive index and yes then
the trick won't work. There is support in the director to disable a
storage device but that disables the whole autochanger so that is also
not what you want. I will take a note to eventually look and see if a nice
and elegant way can be found to disable a drive at runtime,
