[Bacula-users] mtx-changer place in RPM and some other info

[Sergey K. <ska...@co...>]

Hello guys,

I have RedHat 7.2 and Bacula v1.30a
I liked the program and as a response you can state that Bacula works
perfectly with Tape device DEC TLZ09 and it's autochanger. Here is my
/proc/scsi/scsi file:
Attached devices:
Host: scsi1 Channel: 00 Id: 05 Lun: 00
  Vendor: DEC      Model: TLZ9     (C) DEC Rev: A035
  Type:   Sequential-Access                ANSI SCSI revision: 02
Host: scsi1 Channel: 00 Id: 05 Lun: 01
  Vendor: DEC      Model: TLZ9     (C) DEC Rev: A035
  Type:   Medium Changer                   ANSI SCSI revision: 02

But here are some issues that I found:
1. In RPM package: bacula-mysql-rh7-1.30a-1.i386.rpm mtx-changer file is
placed in /etc/bacula directory but this file should be reached through
PATH... Bacula doesn't report that it didn't find the file, but just reports
that you have a problem with autoloader. After I moved this file to /usr/bin
everything started to work perfectly.

2. I was playing around with volumes and pools and finally I decided what I
want and moved 2 volumes from pool Default to pool FullBackup. (purge them
in Default, delete them in Default, add them to FullBackup). Both volumes
seemed to be OK after this (they both had status Append). But when Backup
job started it stuck asking me to mount a storage. I typed "mount" in
console it seemed didn't help, then I purged volume FullBackup02 and job
proceeded with this volume (FullBackup02). here is the log:
--------------------------
stins-sd: Please mount Volume "Fullbackup01" on Storage Device "TapeStorage"
for Job FullBackup.2003-07-29_00.38.04
Use "mount" command to release Job.
stins-sd: FullBackup.2003-07-29_00.38.04 Warning: mount.c:230 Wanted Volume

    Current Volume "FullBackup01" not acceptable because:
    1997 Volume "FullBackup01" not in catalog.
stins-sd: Please mount Volume "Fullbackup01" on Storage Device "TapeStorage"

stins-sd: FullBackup.2003-07-29_00.38.04 Warning: mount.c:230 Wanted Volume

    Current Volume "FullBackup01" not acceptable because:
    1997 Volume "FullBackup01" not in catalog.
stins-dir: There are no Jobs associated with Volume FullBackup02. Marking it
purged.
stins-dir: Recycled volume "FullBackup02"
---------------------------
The console command "list volumes" did show me both FullBackup01 and
FullBackup02. Why bacula thought that FullBackup01 is not in the catalog?

3. Finally backup failed with error:
----------------------------

What could cause this problem?
