Device { Name = device-sd Media Type = File Archive Device = /srv/backup/device Count = 4 Label Media = yes AutomaticMount = yes RemovableMedia = no AlwaysOpen = no RandomAccess = yes Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 1 } 2. create autochanger config Autochanger { Name = autochanger-ac Device = device-sd *## YOUR DEVICE HERE* Changer Device = /dev/null Changer Command = "" } director config 3. create storage config Storage { Name = storage-st Address = ...
