I notice in my configuration I don't have "Check Labels" and I don't
have "MaximumFileSize". I don't see "RemovableMedia" in your settings
nor do I see "RandomAccess" or "Autoselect". Those might be clues, or
they just might be things left over in my config from bacula.
Here's my device config. My changer only has 1 drive though, I'm not
sure if that makes a difference. I'm also not sure how multiple devices
in the autochanger config work. You might try with just 1 device to start.
Device {
Name = Drive-LTO-0
Drive Index = 0
Media Type = LTO-5
Archive Device = /dev/drive0_pv-124t
AutomaticMount = yes # when device opened, read it
AlwaysOpen = yes
RemovableMedia = yes
RandomAccess = no
AutoChanger = yes
Autoselect = yes
# Enable the Alert command only if you have the mtx package loaded
#Alert Command = "sh -c 'tapeinfo -f %c |grep TapeAlert|cat'"
Maximum Spool Size = 1500Gb
Spool Directory = /mnt/bacula-spool
}
