Hi Arno, Thanks for the reply. I copied a "fresh" copy of the mtx-changer script from the source and it works now. I uncommented an echo line which was causing it to fail.
On the subject of mtx-changer script, in the bacula release manual located here: http://www.bacula.org/rel-manual/Autochanger_Support.html In the section "Testing the Autochanger and Adapting your mtx-changer script", it asks you to do the unload command: #/etc/bacula/mtx-changer /dev/sg0 unload # # If a tape is loaded, this should cause it to be unloaded. Which doesn't work because insufficient arguments are given: [EMAIL PROTECTED] bin]# ./mtx-changer /dev/sg0 unload usage: mtx-changer ctl-device command slot archive-device drive Insufficient number of arguments arguments given. Easy enough to resolve, just a minor documentation blip... --Chris >Hello, > >On 1/12/2006 12:14 AM, Chris Hunter wrote: >> Hi again, >> >> I am using bacula 1.38.2 on Scientific Linux 4.2 (rhel4 based distro). >> I have a dell powervault 128t (HP7200) autochanger. >> >> I have some problems with the mtx-changer script. >> I can run mtx-changer "slots" from the command line: >> >> [EMAIL PROTECTED] bin]# ./mtx-changer /dev/sg0 slots 1 /dev/nst0 0 >> Doing mtx -f /dev/sg0 -- to get count of slots >> 20 > > >What happens if you run that command as the user bacula runs as? > >Arno > -- Chris Hunter Systems Programmer, Astronomy, Yale University [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
