seconds. If I start bat it tries to connect to the server but
It looks like I have to stop bacula-sd to use btape. Unfortunately, that
kills the backup job in the drive that is currently in process. Anyway to
avoid kill this and still using the bscan command?
If you can issue an umount on an unused tape drive then you can avoid
the need to stop

I’m having problems labeling a couple new volumes. I tried entering ‘label
barcodes’, which works on most tapes but I have several it that it doesn’t
return a status, pool or media type for. See volume ‘000107’ that I singled
out below.

It seems that part of the problem I have been having with backup is that
bacula is having communication problems with the autochanger. Bacula
tells the autochanger to load slot 3, but instead slot 2 is loaded:

Thanks for your prompt response. I looked at the link you just provided when
I was setting up Bacula. Just a bit more information, when I was labelling
the volumes, Bacula was not auto-labelling any of the tapes so I had to
simulate the barcodes by following the steps in Simulating Barcodes

It is not correct to manually label tapes in an autochanger if you
have one that has a barcode reader. With a barcode reader you issue
label barcodes from the console after you issue update slots.
You assume you have a changer full of blank tapes.
It does not matter if some are already in

I've been using Bacula 2.2.5 as my primary backup software for several
years now and am very happy. As we move to newer version of our linux
operating system I'm having issues with the client so I've decided it's
about time to upgrade. My plan is to

Agreed. If they were from some other backup program you need to erase
them first.
Or if they have last night's Bacula backups on them...

Following is the list of Volumes I have:

Pool#58; Default
Where would that be? I don't see it in /etc/bacula/, and I don't see a
reference to it in /etc/bacula/scripts/mtx-changer.
Both mtx-changer and mtx-changer.conf should be in
/usr/libexec/bacula
at least they are on my system
