Hi,
i have a dell LTO 136T library with freebsd and bacula-1.37.25
sa0: <HP Ultrium 1-SCSI E34A> Removable Sequential Access SCSI-3 device
with the following settings in bacula-sd.conf
Device {
Name = LTO1
Drive Index = 0
Media Type = LTO
Archive Device = /dev/nsa0 # Normal archive device
Autochanger = yes
LabelMedia = yes
#AutomaticMount = yes
AlwaysOpen = yes
Offline On Unmount = no
Hardware End of Medium = no
BSF at EOM = yes
Backward Space Record = no
Fast Forward Space File = no
TWO EOF = yes
}
btest gives the following result:
=== Append files test ===
This test is essential to Bacula.
I'm going to write one record in file 0,
two records in file 1,
and three records in file 2
btape: btape.c:436 Rewound "LTO1" (/dev/nsa0)
btape: btape.c:1515 Wrote one record of 64412 bytes.
btape: btape.c:1517 Wrote block to device.
btape: btape.c:466 Wrote 1 EOF to "LTO1" (/dev/nsa0)
btape: btape.c:1515 Wrote one record of 64412 bytes.
btape: btape.c:1517 Wrote block to device.
btape: btape.c:1515 Wrote one record of 64412 bytes.
btape: btape.c:1517 Wrote block to device.
btape: btape.c:466 Wrote 1 EOF to "LTO1" (/dev/nsa0)
btape: btape.c:1515 Wrote one record of 64412 bytes.
btape: btape.c:1517 Wrote block to device.
btape: btape.c:1515 Wrote one record of 64412 bytes.
btape: btape.c:1517 Wrote block to device.
btape: btape.c:1515 Wrote one record of 64412 bytes.
btape: btape.c:1517 Wrote block to device.
btape: btape.c:466 Wrote 1 EOF to "LTO1" (/dev/nsa0)
btape: btape.c:336 open_ ev "LTO1" (/dev/nsa0) OK
btape: btape.c:436 Rewound "LTO1" (/dev/nsa0)
btape: btape.c:1054 Now moving to end of medium.
btape: btape.c:480 dev.c:674 ioctl MTIOCGET error on "LTO1" (/dev/nsa0).
ERR=Unknown error: 0.
We should be in file 3. I am at file 4. This is NOT correct!!!!
That appears *NOT* to have corrected the problem.
Append test failed.
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Unable to correct the problem. You MUST fix this
problem before Bacula can use your tape drive correctly
Perhaps running Bacula in fixed block mode will work.
Do so by setting:
Minimum Block Size = nnn
Maximum Block Size = nnn
in your Storage daemon's Device definition.
nnn must match your tape driver's block size, which
can be determined by reading your tape manufacturers
information, and the information on your kernel dirver.
Fixed block sizes, however, are not normally an ideal solution.
Some systems, e.g. OpenBSD, require you to set
Use MTIOCGET= no
in your device resource. Use with caution.
What can i do?
Thanks,
Michael
