I've disabled Drive1 in my autochanger config. I've issued a reload in bconsole and restarted the dir daemon. I've tried a test restore and after 4 hours, the job finally completed. I only restored about 1.75GB of data. That was a _very_ long restore over a couple tapes. Is it normally this long on an LTO5 tape/drive? I need to figure out why Drive1 was giving me that no medium error. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "bareos-users" group.
