0KB ReaR BMR ISO Download (Linux)

0KB ReaR BMR ISO Download (Linux)

This scenario only happens on SDs which were installed greater then a year ago.  The older SD configurations do not play nice with the new ReaR Linux BMR - specifically with extracting the ISO's from the SDs when downloading, thus creating a 0KB iso download.

the data however is still there and the ISO is available on the SD. 

PLEASE NOTE - newer SD installs will NOT have this issue

On your SD config file

replace {{****}} to appropriate values below and then restart SD service

    Name = TruncateDevice
    Media Type = {{devicename}} #Match other autochanger device media types
    Archive Device = {{arhivelocation}} #Match other autochanger device archive paths
    LabelMedia = yes # lets Bacula label unlabeled media
    Random Access = Yes
    AutomaticMount = yes # when device opened, read it
    RemovableMedia = no
    AlwaysOpen = no
    AutoSelect = no
