Hello Thomas,
What is the Storage directive value in the JobDefs "DefaultJob"? If your
tape device is displayed as read storage it can mean that in the
"DefaultJob" is set "Tape1". If it isn't this case and if there is "File1",
then I would propose to look carefully what is the Storage value in the Job
directives when you run the "Migrate-to-tape" job manually. In Baculum it
will be the Run Job window. There should be Storage = "File1".
Alternatively, you can set Storage = "File1" in the Pool "File", which is
also correct but please make sure it will not change behavior of other Jobs
using this pool because Storage from Pool overrides Storage value in Job.
In Baculum there is a Migrate Job wizard that helps to create Migrate jobs.
You can find it in the job list page at the top (button "New migrate job").
Good luck.
Best regards,
Marcin Haba (gani)
