Hello,
my problem is describe in the object. When i run the backup the backup go on and end fine. But a new backup on the same tape mark it error and take another tape.
This is the error on bacula log :
12-Dec 10:40 bak02prdost.recupitalia.it-sd JobId 35: Volume "000101L" previously written, moving to end of data.
12-Dec 10:41 bak02prdost.recupitalia.it-sd JobId 35: Error: Unable to position to end of data on device "Drive-1" (/dev/nst1): ERR=dev.c:966 ioctl MTIOCGET error on "Drive-1" (/dev/nst1). ER R=Success.
12-Dec 10:41 bak02prdost.recupitalia.it-sd JobId 35: Marking Volume "000101L" in Error in Catalog.
12-Dec 10:42 bak02prdost.recupitalia.it-sd JobId 35: Please mount Volume "000103L" or label a new one for:
This is my connfiguration on server:
O.S : CentOS release 5.6
Kernel : 2.6.18-238.12.1.el5 x64
Bacula Version : 5.0.3 (from rpm).
Library : Spectralogic T50e with LTO-4 Drive FC
I try to run a btape test with good result , this is the output :
=== Forward space files test ===
This test is essential to Bacula.
I'm going to write five files then test forward spacing

The bacula-sd if configured with :
Autochanger {
Name = spectra
Device = Drive-1
Changer Command = "/usr/lib64/bacula/mtx-changer %c %o %S %a %d"
Changer Device = /dev/sg2
}
Device {
Name = Drive-1 #
Drive Index = 1
Media Type = LTO-4
Archive Device = /dev/nst1
Changer Device = /dev/sg2
TWO EOF = yes
AlwaysOpen = yes;
AutomaticMount = yes; # when device opened, read it
RemovableMedia = yes;
RandomAccess = no;
Maximum File Size = 5GB
SpoolDirectory = /opt/stage/SpoolDirectory
Maximum Spool Size = 25GB # 25 Gb of spool
Alert Command = "sh -c 'tapeinfo -f %c |grep TapeAlert|cat'"
}
I try to use the this on bacula-sd configuration
# Hardware End of Medium = no
But with this option i can't run the backup.
The IBM-Drive is on the lastest firmware upgrade (B711).
p.s: I have another server (the same configuration on another library T200) and work fine with lto4.
Anyone can help me? Thank you.
