-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi all,
I'm running Bacula 5.0.0-9.el6 from the CentOS 6 base repository. My 24 slot autochanger with barcode reader died on me, and in order to keep backups going I replaced it with a spare unit that has only 8 slots and no barcode reader. After the transplant I ran *update slots storage=LTO-3 scan in bconsole to resync Bacula's notion of which tape to find where. It noted correctly Device "LTO-3" has 8 slots. and updated the database so that "list media" showed the correct cartridges for the existing slots 1 through 8. But it still listed tapes as present in the now nonexistent slots 9 through 24.

I corrected the situation manually with a series of *update volume=... slot=0 inchanger=no commands. (I wasn't sure whether just setting "inchanger=no" and leaving the Slot field non-zero would be ok.) Now the output of "list media" looks ok. But shouldn't the "update slots" command have done that for me in the first place?
