Hi.

I work with Bacula (11 and 13)  with lto8,  all fine.

with bacula 13 or 15   work  LTO9 ?


Yes.  ;)

You may want to run some tests using btape to find the right `MaximumFileSize` and `MaximumBlockSize` for your tape drive(s), 
but I can assure you (personally working in Quantum's lab testing Bacula with their latest Scalar i6000 library and LTO9 
drives), Bacula absolutely works fine with them.


The settings I found that work quite well with LTO9 drives (with 10+ concurrent 
backup streams) are:
8<
MaximumFileSize = 32GB
MaximumBlockSize = 2097152
8<

I have also attached a script I wrote to automate the testing of several file 
and block size combinations using btape.

Please have a look and be sure to read the btape documentation to understand what is going on before running the script - 
also there are variable settings at the top you will need to edit to fit your environment.



Hope this helps,
Bill

Bacula should work with LTO 9 just fine. I would be very surprised if it
had issues with LTO 9. Some users on the mailing list have mentioned that
they use LTO 9.
