Can anyone help me please?
Thanks...
clearly /dev/sg0 is not your changer device. have a look at lsscsi and then
test with mtx to see what device is your changer. mine:
krait:~ # lsscsi
[0:0:0:0]diskATA ST980813AS 3.AA /dev/sda
[1:0:0:0]diskATA ST980813AS 3.AA /dev/sdb

[6:0:3:0]tapeHP Ultrium 4-SCSI U26W /dev/st1
[7:0:0:0]diskAdaptec Device 0 V1.0 /dev/sdc
and /dev/sg3 is my changer
krait:~ # mtx -f /dev/sg3 status
Storage Changer /dev/sg3:2 Drives, 48 Slots ( 0 Import/Export )

etc

My O.S. indicates during boot the same devices You see in the lsscsi... This may be due to a configuration of Storage_Router, inside the Tape Library, that bridges FC connection with SCSI ones on Tapes. But I think hardware problem may not exclude in this way communications between bacula and its items... There's something that I'm missing...

John Hi John. It works correctly on /dev/sg0. Shows me the model HP MSL5030, the revision and so on, as in Your example... On /dev/sg1 I see the TAPEDRIVE data... On /dev/sg2 I see the Storage_Router data... I agree with You: there's something wrong in the Storage_Router configuration. But I'm thinking if this condition may confuse bacula or not, because I've excluded 2.nd drive from Storage-daemon configuration.

[Bacula-users] HP msl5030 misfunctions ... Part 1 / 2
I did it!!! (And of course solution was in this mailing list - archives!). All my troubles was in rights assigned to /usr/sbin/b_files of bacula-mysql' rpm (everyone root:root). Perhaps, changing nologin to bacula user in a real shell, I've verified that btape _ test , working perfectly by root, but wasn't operative if executed by bacula. Now all /usr/sbin/b_files from rpm bacula-mysql has owner root:disk, and library works perfectly... --- Now I've to work to Part 2 / 2 that need revision of Storage_Router configuration of my Tape Library, but I can do it with less pression!
