Hello Daniel,

You are welcome :-).

I see you are using /dev/sgX and /dev/nstX device names for the autochanger
configuration. This is not recommended since they can be modified after
server reboots.

Please use /dev/tape/by-id values or even udev rules. Also, I noticed you
have a pool configured to use "Storage = HP-Overland". To avoid confusion,
I would rename your tape library and tape drive resources:


> bacula-sd.conf
>
>
>
> Autochanger {
>
>   Name = "
> ​HP-Overland-​
> Autochanger"
>
>   Device = HP-Overland
> ​-Drive-0​
>
>   Changer Command = "/etc/bacula/mtx-changer %c %o %S %a %d"
>
>   Changer Device = /dev/​tape/by-id/scsi-3500110a00093f5f0
>
}
>
>
>
> Device {
>
>   Name = HP-Overland
> ​-Drive-0​
>
>   Drive Index = 0
>
>   Media Type = LTO-5
>
>   Archive Device = /dev/​tape/by-id/scsi-3500110a00093f5f1-nst
>
>   AutomaticMount = yes;
>
>   AlwaysOpen = yes;
>
>   RemovableMedia = yes;
>
>   RandomAccess = no;
>
>   AutoChanger = yes;
>
>   Alert Command = "sh -c 'smartctl -H -l error /dev/sg3'"
>
> }

​The Storage definition in bacula-dir.conf, should use
​ be something like:

Storage {
  Name =
HP-Overlan
​d​
​-TL
  Device = HP-Overland-Autochanger
...
  Autochanger = yes
​}​
​

​Then your Tape pool should be configured to use the tape library and not
the single drive:​

# Tape pool definition
>
> Pool {
>
>   Name = Tape
>
>   Pool Type = Backup
>
>   Recycle = yes
>
>   AutoPrune = yes
>
>   Volume Retention = 3 years
>
>   Storage = HP-Overland​​-TL
>
}
>

​Regarding what you mentioned about the migration job, I would recommend
you to have the btape tests successfully run and a successful backup job
writing to tape before dealing with a migration job.​

The "fill" btape test needs a blank tape. You should have it formated
before using it with the fill btape test:

mt -f /dev/nst0 rewind
mt -f /dev/nst0 weof

If this does not solve this problem, please let us know the Bacula version
you are using.

Best regards,
Ana
