For the sake of the list archives (no mention so far), the: Dell PowerVault 110T and 120T
(the former simply being a desktop model, and the later being a
rack-mount model), work well with Bacula 1.38.5 on NetBSD 3.0_STABLE and
FreeBSD 5.3-p26. They both pass btape(8) tests. The drives are
DLT7000. They are OEM. The manufacturer is Quantum. The configs are:
Device {
Name = "PGH-DellPowerVault120T"
Drive Index = 0
Media Type = DLT7000
Archive Device = /dev/nsa0
AutomaticMount = yes; # when device opened, read it
AlwaysOpen = yes;
RemovableMedia = yes;
RandomAccess = no;
AutoChanger = no;
Hardware End of Medium = No
BSF at EOM = yes
# Enable the Alert command only if you have the mtx package loaded
Alert Command = "sh -c 'tapeinfo -f %c |grep TapeAlert|cat'"
TWO EOF = yes
}
Device {
Name = "PGH-DellPowerVault110T"
Drive Index = 0
Media Type = DLT7000
Archive Device = /dev/nrst0
AutomaticMount = yes; # when device opened, read it
AlwaysOpen = yes;
RemovableMedia = yes;
RandomAccess = no;
AutoChanger = no;
Hardware End of Medium = No
BSF at EOM = yes
# Enable the Alert command only if you have the mtx package loaded
Alert Command = "sh -c 'tapeinfo -f %c |grep TapeAlert|cat'"
TWO EOF = yes
}
The only major difference being the tape device name differences between
NetBSD and FreeBSD. Also, the 120T requires a "High Voltage
Differential" controller.
