Hi This what I get from btape: === Write, rewind, and position test ===
I'm going to write 1000 records and an EOF then write 1000 records and an EOF, then rewind, and position to a few blocks and verify that it is correct. This is an *essential* feature ... btape: btape.c:943 Wrote 1000 blocks of 64412 bytes. btape: btape.c:505 Wrote 1 EOF to "IBM3590" (/dev/ntibm2) btape: btape.c:959 Wrote 1000 blocks of 64412 bytes. btape: btape.c:505 Wrote 1 EOF to "IBM3590" (/dev/ntibm2) btape: btape.c:968 Rewind OK. Reposition to file:block 0:4 Block 5 re-read correctly. Reposition to file:block 0:200 Block 201 re-read correctly. Reposition to file:block 0:999 Block 1000 re-read correctly. Reposition to file:block 1:0 Block 1001 re-read correctly. Reposition to file:block 1:600 btape: btape.c:1010 Reposition error. I cant append data to the tape either. I get a MTEOM error from bacula as well Regards ________________________________ From: Linux on 390 Port on behalf of Adam Thornton Sent: Wed 2/20/2008 5:42 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: 3590, 3490 Bacula specific Paramters in bacula-sd.conf file?

I don't remember having to do anything special for our 3490.
