Perhaps the write tab on the cassette is in the read-only position. On 6/26/19 2:11 AM, Jose Alberto wrote: Hi. The 2 drive is LTO5. The tape is LTO5. S/O Debian 9 . mtx -f /dev/nst0 weof (OK on Drive 1). unload, and load drive1 mtx -f /dev/nst1 weof (Result= read-only). Same tape btape and tapeinfo show same configuration. And view "interesting" config on WEB Tape. is: Drive0 is Bridge. and Drive1 is not Bridge. from the rest I see no difference between the drives. unless at the hardware level it is already defective.

> The 2 drive is LTO5. The tape is LTO5. Who manufactured the drives? HP or IBM? Can you find out the model numbers? Have you tried running the OEM diagnostics on them to see what they say? The HP ones are particularly detailed and informative. Cheers, Adam. ___ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users

Hi. The 2 drive is LTO5. The tape is LTO5. S/O Debian 9 . mtx -f /dev/nst0 weof(OK on Drive 1). unload, and load drive1 mtx -f /dev/nst1 weof(Result= read-only). Same tape btape and tapeinfo show same configuration. And view "interesting" config on WEB Tape. is:Drive0 is Bridge. and Drive1 is not Bridge. from the rest I see no difference between the drives. unless at the hardware level it is already defective.

Re: [Bacula-users] Tape SL150 (Oracle). Drive Read-Only. Licence?
Hello, You did not mention whether or not you are using Bacula. For Bacula there is no license blockage. Often writing of older LTO formats (e.g. writing LTO-3 on an LTO-5) drive is not supported by the drive manufacturer. In your case, I suspect that the problem is in your OS where the drive device filename is not defined to have write permission. chmod +w might solve the problem.a Best regards, Kern On 6/20/19 8:02 PM, Jose Alberto wrote: Hi.
