Hi,
I am trying to configure an IBM tape library in bareos but it couldn't use the
tape drives while triggering backup. I am getting the below error while running
"update slots" cmd in bconsole.
*update slots
Automatically selected Catalog: MyCatalog
Using Catalog "MyCatalog"

But "btape" cmd is able to identify the drive and medium changer. The
configuration info is as below.
/etc/bareos/bareos-dir.d/storage/Tape.conf (tape device conf file)
Storage {
Name = Tape
Address = server.com # N.B. Use a fully qualified name here (do
not use "localhost" here).
Password = "KaqAI1Un4lXK4WOXpfUr1RV5l5Irmqxj9Q+DXL9N+Qcf"
Device = 3583-changer
Media Type = LTO
AutoChanger = yes
}
/etc/bareos/bareos-sd.d/autochanger/autochanger.conf (bareos sd conf file)
Autochanger {
Name = 3583-changer
Changer Device = /dev/tape/by-id/scsi-1IBM_03584L32_0000078267420401
Device = Drive1
Changer Command = "/usr/lib/bareos/scripts/mtx-changer %c %o %S %a %d"
}
Device {
Name = Drive1
Drive Index = 0
Media Type = LTO
Archive Device = /dev/tape/by-id/scsi-350050760440b5801-nst
AutomaticMount = yes; # when device opened, read it

}
/etc/bareos/bareos-sd.d/device/3583-changer.conf (device conf file)
Device {
Name = "3583-changer"
DeviceType = tape
# default:0, only required if the autoloader have multiple drives.
# if only one drive is available, this is normally /dev/nst0.
# However, it is advised to access it via id (/dev/tape/by-id/...).
ArchiveDevice = /dev/tape/by-id/scsi-1IBM_03584L32_0000078267420401
#ArchiveDevice = /dev/tape/by-id/scsi-350011d00018a5f03-nst
# arbitrary string that descripes the the storage media.
# Bareos uses this to determine, which device can be handle what media.
MediaType = LTO
# enable "Check Labels" if tapes with ANSI/IBM labels
# should be preserved
Check Labels = yes
AutoChanger = yes # default: no
AutomaticMount = yes # default: no
MaximumFileSize = 10GB # default: 1000000000 (1GB)
Label Media = yes
}
Please help me where am I going wrong. Let me know if you need any more
information.
Thanks,
