Re: [Bacula-users] Doubt about a possible event when the tape is full

2010-11-10 Thread Rodrigo N. de Castro Fernandes

Hi Phil Stracchino,

many thanks for your prompt answer.

Ok, i got it (the tape is automatically unmount when it fills). Is there any 
way to run a script shell to eject the tape (mt -f /dev/st0 eject) when it 
fills?


Brazilian Regards!
Rodrigo

 If the tape fills, Bacula should automatically unmount it and request a
 new tape before continuing.  If it can't do so, it probably means your
 tape drive storage device isn't configured correctly.

Why use a shell script?  Look at the 'Offline On Unmount' directive.
Setting it to yes should automatically eject the tape when unmounted.
