Hello Bacula Users!

I am trying to get Bacula running.  I have it working using disk.  I just need 
it to use my tape drive.  I am using Linux CentOS 7 (on Dell 720) and a Dell 
DL4000 tape library.  

P.S. Note the "Alert Command" setting (as I always get those 50/50 chances 
wrong).

ERROR:

03-Sep 11:21 bacula-sd JobId 13: Job DL4000.2014-09-03_11.21.39_05 is waiting. 
Cannot find any appendable volumes.
Please use the "label" command to create a new Volume for:
    Storage:      "Drive1" (/dev/nst0)
    Pool:         Default
    Media type:   LTO-6-Drive

CONFIG:

[bacula-dir.conf]
# Definition of DDS tape storage device
Storage {
  Name = DL4000
#  Do not use "localhost" here
   Address = [my FQDN here - RAT]      # N.B. Use a fully qualified name here
   SDPort = 9103
   Password = "[it's a secret]"        # password for Storage daemon
   Device = Drive1                     # must be same as Device in Storage 
daemon
   Device = Drive2                     # must be same as Device in Storage 
daemon
   Device = Drive3                     # must be same as Device in Storage 
daemon
   Device = Drive4                     # must be same as Device in Storage 
daemon
   Media Type = LTO-6-Drive            # must be same MediaType in Storage 
daemon
   Autochanger = yes                   # enable for autochanger device
}

[bacula-sd.conf]

# My Attempt to add the Dell DL4000
#
Autochanger {
  Name = DL4000
  Device = Drive1
  Device = Drive2
  Device = Drive3
  Device = Drive4
  Changer Command = "/usr/libexec/bacula/mtx-changer %c %o %S %a %d"
  Changer Device = /dev/sg5
}

Device {
  Name = Drive1                      #
  Drive Index = 0
  Media Type = LTO-6-Drive
  Archive Device = /dev/nst0
  AutomaticMount = yes;               # when device opened, read it
  AlwaysOpen = yes;
  RemovableMedia = yes;
  RandomAccess = no;
  AutoChanger = yes
#  #
#  # Enable the Alert command only if you have the mtx package loaded
#  # Note, apparently on some systems, tapeinfo resets the SCSI controller
#  #  thus if you turn this on, make sure it does not reset your SCSI
#  #  controller.  I have never had any problems, and smartctl does
#  #  not seem to cause such problems.
#  #
#  Alert Command = "sh -c 'tapeinfo -f %c |grep TapeAlert|cat'"
#  If you have smartctl, enable this, it has more info than tapeinfo
  Alert Command = "sh -c 'smartctl -H -l error %c'"
}

(similar X4 for the rest of drives)
