[Bacula-users] Autochanger command wrong ?

[W R. M. <wr...@sd...>]

Hello,

I am using bacula 1.32c and freebsd 4.9-STABLE I have working backups to
disk and I am trying to backup the disk to tape for a CYA . The tape
changer is a Dell Power Vault 120T using a DDS4 drive with a magazine
for 7+1 sequential operation. I have modified the chio-bacula script to
work with my tape changer. My understanding of the commands is load and
unload handle the mounting and unmounting of tape and loaded tells which
slot is loaded and the next slot to load.

What could cause bacula to only issue the 'loaded' command then check
for a new tape?
