OK. I believe the problem is how I got the bacula-dir.conf and
bacula-sd.conf files configured.
These are the pertinent parts:
bacula-dir.conf
Storage {
Name = "File1"
SdPort = 9103
Address = "bacula02.imn.ad"
Password = "ZGZjNDMzZTg0OTR"
Device = "FileChgr1"
MediaType = "File1"
Autochanger = "File1"
MaximumConcurrentJobs = 10
}
Storage {
Name = "IBMLTO7"
Description = "IBM LTO7 Inside Quantum SuperLoader 3 Tape Library"
Address = "bacula02.imn.ad"
Password = "XXXXXXXXXX"
Device = "IBMLTO7"
MediaType = "LTO-7"
Autochanger = "IBMLTO7"
MaximumConcurrentJobs = 1
}
-------------------------------
bacula-sd.conf
Device {
Name = "FileChgr1-Dev1"
MediaType = "File1"
ArchiveDevice = "/home/bacula/backups"
RemovableMedia = no
RandomAccess = yes
AutomaticMount = yes
LabelMedia = yes
AlwaysOpen = no
MaximumConcurrentJobs = 5
}
Device {
Name = "IBMLTO7"
Description = "IBM LTO7 in Library 1 Drive 1"
MediaType = "LTO-7"
DeviceType = "Tape"
ArchiveDevice = "/dev/tape/by-id/scsi-35005076312156b6c-nst"
RemovableMedia = yes
RandomAccess = no
AutomaticMount = yes
LabelMedia = yes
AlwaysOpen = yes
Autochanger = yes
AutoSelect = yes
ChangerDevice = "/dev/tape/by-id/scsi-3500e09efff10c86a"
AlertCommand = "sh -c 'tapeinfo -f %c |grep TapeAlert|cat'"
MaximumBlockSize = 512K
MaximumFileSize = 20000000000
Spool Directory = "/home/bacula/spool"
MaximumSpoolSize = 2000000000
}
Autochanger {
Name = "FileChgr1"
Device = "FileChgr1-Dev1"
ChangerDevice = "/dev/null"
ChangerCommand = ""
}
Autochanger {
Name = QUANTUM-LTO-Lib1
Description = "Quantum SuperLoader 3"
Device = "IBMLTO7"
Changer Device = "/dev/tape/by-id/scsi-3500e09efff10c86a"
Changer Command = "/opt/bacula/scripts/mtx-changer %c %o %S %a %d\"
Changer Device = "/dev/tape/by-id/scsi-3500e09efff10c86a"
}
This is the only way I got the LTO7 IBM Drive inside the Quantum
Superloader3 to work and change tapes automatically.
What should I change?
