Hi Rob,I updated the slots. THEN (yes, yes, shame on me) I checked the messages. In my email below I reacted to an error messages via email... It seems as there was a time out when loading the tape, which was recovered by after some time:

Still confused about the error message, but it seems as there are some self-healing capabilities involved.

When I have seen this before it is becuase bacula has old information about the tape location. Like if the tape was added to the changer or moved to a different slot using the tape changer web interface or front panel, but bacula's knowledge of tape inventory was not refreshed. In those cases i have ran an 'update slots' operation from the bacularis volumes tab. Please note that it is necessary to specify the entire range of available slots (in my case, '1-24'). The default slot value '0' does not mean 'refresh all slots' in my experience.In these cases I have also had good results manually moving the necessary tape to the drive. After about 5 minutes or so bacula should recognize that the correct media has shown up in the drive and resume the job(s) that are waiting for that media. However, I am not sure if the bacula tape inventory will remain out for date after the backup operation finishes. An update slots task might still be necessary.You should also be able to do an update slots task from bconsole, but I'm unfamiliar with the exact syntax.Robert Gerber 402-237-8692 r...@craeon.netOn Mon, Aug 5, 2024, 12:08 PM Dr. Thorsten Brandau <thorsten.bran...@brace.de> wrote:Hi I get this message: 05-Aug 16:09 -sd JobId 908: Please mount append Volume "000023L9" or label a new one for: and I am confused.

Bacula should load the volume by itself, doesn't it?
