stakulah (storage daemon) attached to a qualstar 4400 with 2 tape drives.


Configuration files for the director and storage daemon are below this
email.

Everything works great the backups run. I have gotten tls to work and
encryption to work.

The only issue I have is that only 1 tape drive is ever used even though
the qualstar has 2.. I set it to run all jobs at the same time to do a full
run of the backup data (its all test data as this is a proof of concept)
however it only uses one 1 tape drive.. The qualstar is a 48 tape changer
and also works by reading the barcodes so have added all of the tapes to one
pool called default.

list media produces the following:

I have One main question, which is:


1. Can 1 pool use 2 tape drives simultaneously ? and if so how do I force
bacula to use both tape drives ?

If the answer is no, would I need to use more than 1 pool for each tape
drive  and does anyone have a sample configuration or could point me in the
right direction for setting this up ?
I have tried using more than one pool simultaneously in the past but this
has given me problems when coming to tape changes as it asks for manual tape
changing.. Should this automatically work and does anyone have any
suggestions as to what I am doing wrong? I am sure this is down to something
I am misunderstanding.


Thank you in advance for your help,

Vamegh
