[Bacula-users] Bacula setup driving me nuts
Hi all,
I have a strange problem when i try to mount a tape.
First what i have i use centos 5.4 with bacula 5.0.3
Hardware is an IBM TS3100 (3573-TL) with 2 LTO5 (ULT3580-HH5)
config from bacula-sd.conf
Autochanger {
Name = Autochanger
Device = LTO5_1, LTO5_2
Changer Device = /dev/sg5
Changer Command = "/etc/bacula/mtx-changer %c %o %S %a %d"
}
Device {
Name = LTO5_1
Drive Index = 0
Media Type = LTO5
Archive Device = /dev/st0
Autochanger = yes
Automatic Mount = yes
Always Open = yes
Removable Media = yes
Random Access = no
Requires Mount = no
Maximum Job Spool Size = 12G
Spool directory = "/var/spool"
Label Type = Bacula
Check Labels = yes
Label Media = no
}
Device {
Name = LTO5_2
Drive Index = 1
Media Type = LTO5
Archive Device = /dev/st1
Autochanger = yes
Automatic Mount = yes
Always Open = yes
Removable Media = yes
Random Access = no
Requires Mount = no
Maximum Job Spool Size = 12G
Spool directory = "/var/spool"
Label Type = Bacula
Check Labels = yes
LabelMedia = no
Config from bacula-dir.conf
Storage {
Name = AutoChanger
Password = host
Address = snlbck01.steltix.local
SDPort = 9103
Device = Autochanger
Media Type = LTO5
Autochanger = yes
Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 20
What happens if i want to mount a tape from console i do the following and get
the following.
*mount
Automatically selected Catalog: MyCatalog
Using Catalog "MyCatalog"
The defined Storage resources are:
1: File
2: AutoChanger
Select Storage resource (1-2): 2
Connecting to Storage daemon AutoChanger at snlbck01.steltix.local:9103 ...
Enter autochanger drive[0]: 0
Enter autochanger slot: 5
3301 Issuing autochanger "loaded? drive 0" command.
3302 Autochanger "loaded? drive 0", result: nothing loaded.
3304 Issuing autochanger "load slot 5, drive 0" command.
3992 Bad autochanger "load slot 5, drive 0": ERR=Child died from signal 15:
Termination.
Results=Program killed by Bacula (timeout)
3301 Issuing autochanger "loaded? drive 0" command.
3302 Autochanger "loaded? drive 0", result is Slot 5.
3901 Unable to open device "LTO5_1" (/dev/st0): ERR=dev.c:491 Unable to open
device "LTO5_1" (/dev/st0): ERR=No medium found
Then i ask the Status and get the following
*status
Status available for:
1: Director
2: Storage
3: Client
4: All
Select daemon type for status (1-4): 2
The defined Storage resources are:

Slot 5 is loaded in drive 0.
Device "LTO5_2" (/dev/st1) is not open.
Drive 1 status unknown.
Used Volume status:
so the tape is loaded in the correct drive but not mounted. then i try another
mount
*mount
The defined Storage resources are:
1: File
2: AutoChanger
Select Storage resource (1-2): 2
Enter autochanger drive[0]: 0
Enter autochanger slot:
3901 Unable to open device "LTO5_1" (/dev/st0): ERR=dev.c:491 Unable to open
device "LTO5_1" (/dev/st0): ERR=No medium found
wont mount and then i do the following mount.
*mount
The defined Storage resources are:
1: File
2: AutoChanger
Select Storage resource (1-2): 2
Enter autochanger drive[0]: 1
Enter autochanger slot:
3301 Issuing autochanger "loaded? drive 1" command.
3302 Autochanger "loaded? drive 1", result: nothing loaded.
3001 Mounted Volume: SCR02
3001 Device "LTO5_2" (/dev/st1) is already mounted with Volume "SCR02"
and the tape is mounted to LTO5_2 while it should LTO5_1
if ask for status it tells me this
Device status:
Autochanger "Autochanger" with devices:
"LTO5_1" (/dev/st0)
"LTO5_2" (/dev/st1)
Device "FileStorage" (/tmp) is not open.
Device "LTO5_1" (/dev/st0) is not open.
Slot 5 is loaded in drive 0.
Device "LTO5_2" (/dev/st1) is mounted with:
Volume: SCR02
Pool:*unknown*
Media type: LTO5
Drive 1 status unknown.
Total Bytes Read=64,512 Blocks Read=1 Bytes/block=64,512
Positioned at File=1 Block=0
Used Volume status:
SCR02 on device "LTO5_2" (/dev/st1)
Reader=0 writers=0 devres=0 volinuse=0
I am totaly lost i asked at first to mount on drive 0 LTO and ending up on
LTO5_2 it does this with jobs to when i manualy move the tape to drive1 the
jobs goes further
What could be wrong i dont know anymore
btw i am a newby with bacula so dont shoot me for asking stupid things i
googled and googled but couldnt find anything about it.
Regards Marcel

Bacula use an external program to interfacing with autoloader. This command is defined by "Changer Command" directive. I see in your logs that the changer command dies. Your changer command is: /etc/bacula/mtx-changer %c %o %S %a %d this configuration invoke /etc/bacula/mtx-changer /dev/sg5 load 5 /dev/st0 0 when bacula tries to load slot 5 of drive 0. The script mtx-changer shoud not die, I think you must debug this.. sorry for my poor english..

Re: [Bacula-users] Bacula setup driving me nuts
Hi,
Only for testing, could you use "/dev/nst0" and "/dev/nst1" in Device
section. This use the "non-rewind" device type. Try mount again then.
