Hello Gi Dot,
That is fantastic. You found source of the problem and you fixed the
source. From this time the workarround with shell scripts is not
needed anymore.
By the way you fixed your tape drive problem with EOF position and you
adjusted your tape drive to work with Bacula.
Only good thing
Hi,
I don't use the mount and umount scripts anymore by setting the following
parameters:
AlwaysOpen = no
AutomaticMount = yes
Previously I had AlwaysOpen set to yes and therefore I had to manually
unmount it so that the tape is ready to be ejected by the user.
AutomaticMount was not set as well
Hello Gi Dot,
OK, fine.
Please note that mount and umount scripts that you mentioned are
defined on Director side, not on Storage Daemon side. You also
mentioned that you removed mount.sh and umount.sh after some tests.
To btape you use bacula-sd.conf as a param in which you don't use
mount.sh a
Yes, I'm planning to add the suggested parameters as well. Will also try
out the mt-st command.
I am pretty sure that the error occurred due to the mount and unmount

Hardware End of Medium = No
Fast Forward Space File = No
BSF at EOM = yes
You mentioned that you alrea
Oh ya btw I'm using the mt command.

Hi,
Thanks for your reply. I have changed my bacula-sd.conf configuration since
a couple of weeks, and removed the mount.sh and umount.sh scripts. So far I
have not received the tape error anymore.
I did run the btape test as suggested, and seems like I have more
modification to make. Let me know
Hello Gi Dot,
Could you try to run test command in btape tool and past here output
from this test?
The output text from the test command in btape can also advise adding
some directives to your Bacula config (BSF at EOM = yes/no ...and
others).
I have also question if you use "mt" or "mt-st" prog
