Format and barcode labeling Functional! ver 1.1-3 Still need to reconfigure library and test with 2 drives

my stuff is getting old, nope its already there. Thanks for the feedback

guessing pmt is the replacement for mt?

Gotcha, I remember doing that with 2 drives. But drive 0 is always default correct? Anyway, duplicated error after re-config erase failed - Illegal Request, Additional sense: Invalid command operation code but no default drive... root@pbs172:/dev/tape/by-id# proxmox-tape barcode-label...

In full disclosure, I'm still feeling "??" This config is slightly different, gui wise it might look the same. Tape library has 2 drive bays, using second one this time, unlike before was using the first one (top) Going to clear the partition on the libary and reconfigure to the top bay...

Thank you sir, did just that. Also was reading your post on pbs-dev But another issue has popped up. Unable to barcode tape, with one drive. Maybe related? Will wait for update, post new thread if it is still present. I think I have enough PBS format tapes to rotate it out (like I should...

Ok was worried, try again. I tried a variation of that, guess I did not have the > in the right place

Yep, was looking for a better way to capture, but here is what I got Received 2196 bytes of data: 00 00 01 00 27 00 00 08 8c 01 80 00 34 00 00 00 34 ...'.......4...4 10 00 01 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 20 20 20 20 ............ 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20...

I started to post this earlier, I have the same library mapped twice, but both to same device Odd, its the only scsi device listed as such, lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 Apr 19 11:52 scsi-1ADIC_A0C0607908_LLA -> ../../sg5 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 Apr 19 11:52 scsi-3500308c09c7cf000 ->...

Thanks folks, much appreciated I'm still not beyond having done something wrong somewhere..

Ok, trying to learn what your looking for.... but by this I'm missing data on the second drive.. { "Ok": { "drives": [ { "loaded_slot": 16, "status": { "VolumeTag": "000005" }, "drive_serial_number": "F09C7CF000", "vendor": "IBM"...

I did just try using -sg instead of the -nst drives. Just some ramblings.. So for this drive the mt command failed for the -sg drive lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 Apr 19 11:52 scsi-F09C7CF004 -> ../../st0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 Apr 19 11:52 scsi-F09C7CF004-nst -> ../../nst0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root...

I have had pretty good luck with iscsi for my datastores

Are tape libraries still WIP? I have a script that runs mtx for zeroing out tapes before use. And seems to work with either drive. But not sure I'm dealing with the updated pmtx dealing with a multiple drive arrangement, or the drive itself ( It was added at the same time) get same error...

After a few weeks tinkering between putting out other fires I have finally achieved what appears on the surface a workable library and backup task. Most all if not all caveats I feel into where working with older hardware that had been tasked with working with Backup Exec and Bareos...

No matter who says what, everybody setup is different, ***TEST*** And I can speak from experience, its never as simple as the manuals say, but if it is YEA! More you test the more comfortable you will feel. But as said above, retesting helps maintain that trust and confidence.

I found it in the changelog, that might do it too. But they indicated a permission change on that folder The usual tape routine, erasing the old tapes tapes and redoing barcode info (old bareos tapes). Got enough to mess with, a few problems have cropped up but I can wait a bit till your ready

Yikes, thought it was. I have it enabled. Somewhere in the PBS info for 1.0-9 there was information about "touch tape.cfg" I was not expecting much, was able to add drive and library, and thats about its, stuck on inventory. unable to read json "/var/lib/proxmox-backup/tape/inventory.json"...
