Storage Device Names
There is a utility installed called
scsilist.exe which displays the installed
devices, their physical address and their
device name. A link to it is
created in the Bacula menu when the
Storage service is installed.
Changer and Tape device names in Windows
are Changer0, Changer1, etc and
Tape0, Tape1, etc. If there isn't a
device driver loaded for the Changer
then you need to use the address
Port:Bus:Target:Lun. Port is the
SCSI Adapter Number, Bus is the Bus Number
on the adapter (usually 0 since
most adapters only have one bus), Target

Hi Robert,
This comment is in reference to the conversation about using HP Windows
Drivers.
In my conversations with HP and other vendors about drivers and tape
drives on Windows, the consensus seemed to be that using Windows drivers
created more problems that they solved. Their advice was to address the
scsi devices directly. The benefits are increased throughput and fewer
problems communicating with the devices.
I do not have experience running the Bacula sd on Windows, but I have
run other enterprise backup systems on Windows and this was the advice I
was given by the vendors. IIRC, the issue is with scsi device command
communication, and the applications handled it better directly with the
devices than through the Windows drivers.
The earlier advice about determining the device id's using scsilist.exe
would facilitate this, I think.
FWIW.

You need to pay particular attention to how the various resource

example the Device in the Storage resource in the Director

Storage configuration file. In your case it should be HP_Ultrium not
the physical address. Device Names such as changer0, tape0 and
4:0:5:1 are only specified in the Storage configuration.
Spend some time looking at the example configs and read the
documentation and youll probably have much better luck.

I think you should rethink what you are doing. Given that this is URGENT, and it probably involves important data for you company, you really should be quite careful about basing it on a technology that you don't fully master (Bacula on Win32) AND basing it on a part of Bacula (Win32 server + SD) that is not yet officially documented nor supported. If your request were not URGENT, I could see learning and working with the Win32 version, which to the best of my knowledge works perfectly fine. However, you would probably be much better off spending a very minor amount of money and install an OpenSUSE system similar to the one you are currently using. At least in the short term that might (must be carefully reviewed) be a much less painful way to solve the problem. as you can see in the bacula's scsilist.exe log, the device has no name attributed, that's what confused me regards, Nawfel - Message d'origine De : Florian Heigl [EMAIL PROTECTED] À : [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Envoyé le : Lundi, 12 Mars 2007, 11h38mn 33s Objet : Re: [Bacula-users] ***URGENTNeed Help !*** Hey sorry, but answer me one question: What topic are You going to use if you ever have a really urgent problem?
