Hi Adrian, Thanks for the info. I will look at that URL.
I tried to setup the iSCSI and was able to successfully control the autochanger. However, I tried to configure the tape drive as pass-through, and seem to get some issues. I was lacking time, so I finally switched the servers, and make the single CPU with tape drive the main Bacula server, and the dual CPU with disk mounted as NFS. This works, but I was hoping to have the other way so that my backups would be faster. My full backups are quite long. When I have a chance, I'll revisit my config and try it again.

In your case it might be a better solution to import the tape via iSCSI as I assume you want to do some Backup to disk to tape stuff. The proxmox project has a guide for this. On a quick glance it looks not like it is limited to KVM/windows/proxmox: http://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Tape_Drives#Using_Tape_Drives_as_iSCSI_target_.28for_Windows_KVM_guests.29 Regards, Adrian -- LiHAS - Adrian Reyer - Hessenwiesenstraße 10 - D-70565 Stuttgart Fon: +49 (7 11) 78 28 50 90 - Fax: +49 (7 11) 78 28 50 91 Mail: li...@lihas.de - Web: http://lihas.de Linux, Netzwerke, Consulting & Support - USt-ID: DE 227 816 626 Stuttgart ________________________________ This E-mail and any of its attachments may contain Company proprietary information, which is privileged, confidential, or subject to copyright belonging to the Company.
