Hi all, This is a rather lengthy e-mail, and there may be more than one configuration error. Please feel free to respond to only a piece of it. Configuration files and permissions info are at the end of the e-mail.
I have been trying to get bacula to work for almost three days now; I have read through the manual and some mailing list archives, and I hope I'm only missing something small. I have a Dell PowerVault 128T autochanger with a single LTO1 drive and a 20 slot library; I'm using CentOS4.4 (RHEL4). The Unix commands mt and mtx work without problems. I also checked the mtx-changer section of the manual (http://dna.dbi.udel.edu/manuals/bacula/Autochanger_Support.html#SECTION0002915000000000000000) and the commands work OK except for the following: [EMAIL PROTECTED] bacula]# ./mtx-changer /dev/sg1 unload usage: mtx-changer ctl-device command [slot archive-device drive-index] Insufficient number of arguments arguments given. Command expected 5 arguments I have also checked the timing of the autochanger, and I don't seem to need any additional wait or sleep statements to get the drive to work. I have tested the drive using btape (test, autochanger, fill). The first two commands work OK, but the fill test does not properly change tapes, even though it says it should be aware of the autochanger. It simply asks me to change the tape and then overwrites the first tape. Is this a problem with my configuration or is it a bug? The FD authorization error below shows up each time I run the console, even though I only have one client defined and the password is correct. Perhaps I'm misinterpreting the message? bconsole session ============ You have messages. *mess 16-Oct 10:57 pitfall-dir: *Console*.2006-10-16_10.53.36 Fatal error: Unable to authenticate with File daemon.
