yes the tape drive has a barcode scanner. i tried the 'update slots' message and i got the following error: Automatically selected Storage: PV-122T Connecting to Storage daemon PV-122T at localhost:9103 ... 3306 Issuing autochanger "slots" command. Device "PV-122T" has 0 slots. No slots in changer to scan.

In this case you should never label your tapes directly. You normally issue the update slots command after adding tapes and the aotochanger is done scanning the labels. Then after that completes issue label barcodes command in bconsole and put all tapes into the Scratch pool. Do not worry about already labeled tapes being in the list. Bacula will only grab and label the tapes that are in the changer that are not in the bacula database. After this completes and bacula needs a tape it will grab it from the Scratch pool and move it into the current pool.

Re: [Bacula-users] Device Error
I don't believe it has two drives in it. i've removed the second entry from bacula-sd as I was running into a problem when I tried to run a job. I've restarted all the services since removing the pv122T-2 lines from the -sd.conf file and when I do a 'run' from bconsole followed by a 'status' on "storage" I get the following error: Device status: Autochanger "PV-122T" with devices: "PV-122T-1" (/dev/nst0) Device "PV-122T-1" (/dev/nst0) is mounted with: Volume: test001 Pool:File Media type: LTO-2 Device is BLOCKED waiting to create a volume for: Pool:File Media type: LTO-2 Drive 0 status unknown.

Re: [Bacula-users] Device Error
John,
the online guidE I followed should setting up the pv-122t with -1 and -2 so
I can't really give you a reason as to why I have them in my config, other
than i was told that was the correct way.
Greg,
thise changes seem to have worked. Well I am not getting the errors anymore
when i try to run a job. Now I just need to figure out how to porperly load
and mount the appropriate tape and everything will be good. It's always the
small things that get me it seems.
Thanks for the help thus far.

Re: [Bacula-users] Device Error
I know I sent this to the mailing list and please forgive me for trying
again but I am really at a loss of what my next step needs to be to get
backup working.
A bit on my setup. I am running Debian 6 with a Dell Powervault 122T. I
can load tapes, and mount the tapes but when I tr y to run a bacup from
bconsole I get the following errors when I do a 'messages'.
KITSrv01-sd JobId 9: Fatal error: Device reservation failed for JobId=9:
KITSrv01-dir JobId 9: Fatal error:
Storage daemon didn't accept Device "PV-122T-1" because:
3924 Device "PV-122T-1" not in SD Device resources.
In my bacla-sd.conf I have the following which shows the device name:
PV-122T-1 and -2
Autochanger {
Name = PV-122T
Device = PV-122T-1, PV-122T-2
Changer Command = "/usr/local/bacula/etc/mtx-changer %c %o %S %a %d"
Changer Device = /dev/sg5
}
Device {
Name = PV-122T-1
Drive Index = 0
Media Type = LTO-2
Archive Device = /dev/nst0
AutomaticMount = yes; # when device opened, read it
AlwaysOpen = yes;
RemovableMedia = yes;
RandomAccess = no;
AutoChanger = yes
}
Device {
Name = PV-122T-2
Drive Index = 1
Media Type = LTO-2
Archive Device = /dev/nst0
AutomaticMount = yes; # when device opened, read it
AlwaysOpen = yes;
RemovableMedia = yes;
RandomAccess = no;
AutoChanger = yes
}
In bacla-dir.conf I have the following:
JobDefs {
Name = "DefaultJob"
Type = Backup
Level = Incremental
Client = KITSrv01-fd
FileSet = "Full Set"
Schedule = "WeeklyCycle"
# Storage = File
Storage = PV-122T-1
Messages = Standard
Pool = File
Priority = 10
Write Bootstrap = "/var/lib/bacula/%c.bsr"
My full configs can be seen here: http://www.pastebin.ca/2046880
Thanks,
Hi Robert,
It looks like your Storage resource in your bacula-dir.conf isn't set up
correctly. You have it pointing to a Device, where it should be
pointing to the Autochanger. You also mistyped your Media Type as
"VTO-2" instead of "LTO-2".
Try these changes and let us know if you get different results:
bacula-dir.conf
JobDefs {
...
Name = "DefaultJob"
Storage = PV-122T
...
}
Storage {
...
Name = PV-122T
Device = PV-122T
Media Type = LTO-2
...
}

Not sure if this is the problem but why are PV-122T-1 and PV-122T-2
using the same tape drive?
