I get this error message all the time and of course my backups do not run due to this error. I get this error periodically, using single drives (a VXA1 and an LTO1). Usually, it means that a tape has been changed, but not unmounted first. If I execute an unmount and a mount on the drive in question, it invariably goes away. You might try this before you go relabelling tapes. The other problem I have is bacula dies on a regular basis (usually when the full backups run), exactly when the first backup is scheduled to run. When I check the logs, I see; 05-Dec 22:00 ganymede-dir: Start Backup JobId 1963, Job=Custweb2.2005-12-05_22.00.00 and nothing else… Does it dump core? Are you running with debugging enabled?

RE: [Bacula-users] Problems with Bacula installation...
Ok I have increased the sleep time in the mtx-changer file so we will see what that does, however I am not very hopeful as most of the time, when I get this error message it has been sitting for hours, I do a mount and it still happens... - Thank you, Grant Della Vecchia System Administrator AIS Media, Inc. 7000 Central Parkway, Suite 1700 Atlanta, GA 30328 Tel: 770.350.7998 | Fax: 770.350.9409 URL: www.aismedia.com | Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Volker Dierks Sent: Monday, December 12, 2005 8:12 AM To: bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [Bacula-users] Problems with Bacula installation...

Use the function wait_for_tape or whatever it's called in the mtx-changer script. And, in case you still have problems, implement some logging into that script. Worked wonders for me :-) Arno - Thank you, Grant Della Vecchia System Administrator AIS Media, Inc. 7000 Central Parkway, Suite 1700 Atlanta, GA 30328 Tel: 770.350.7998 | Fax: 770.350.9409 URL: www.aismedia.com | Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Volker Dierks Sent: Monday, December 12, 2005 8:12 AM To: bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [Bacula-users] Problems with Bacula installation...
