You didn't mention which version of Bacula you are using. I seem to recall
that this was just a problem of incorrectly printing the slot number.
More recent versions of Bacula (2.0.x) print the details of why the script
failed, which makes debugging these problems easier.

That got it fixed! I just needed to install the 64 bit version of the
bacula-client. I assumed the 64bit version would be available from
bacula.org through their sourceforge CVS but apparently someone else
maintains the 64bit version. Who would have known. Anyway...thanks for
the tip.

Well, there are several important considerations you need to be aware of:
1. If I am not mistaken, there were some problems with the version you are
using and we modified the format of the Volume data in some very particular
cases, so going to 2.0.2 in some special cases may not be compatible.
Adam,
Take a look at the directive Prefer Open Volumes. I had to set this
to No
to get concurrent jobs to run on 2 tape drives.
The only other significant difference that I see is that I have
AutoSelect
set to 'yes' in my config under the Device entry in the SD config file.

For starters, you can adjust the scripts to rename the database to
anything you wish. Just vi the scripts, search for the name of the
database bacula, then replace those names where it appears to be
creating a database...should only be one place though.
