3. Automatically cleaning of the tape drive. (after x used tapes, x GB or maybe every saturday) I think this can be scripted and scheduled with an admin job, but we think this should be a function of bacula.


no.
new tape drives aks for cleaning tape with a special LED, also manufacurer tells you only to use cleaning tape when asked for it

Seconded.

HOWEVER: It would be nice to have some sort of feature to automatically (request if not in changer,) load and run the cleaning tape if a drive is requesting it, along with tracking the number of uses it's had.
