Hi all,
I've configured backup to tape through server-manager, but backups just dont seem to work.
Here is the log
flexbackup version 1.2.1 (
http://flexbackup.sourceforge.net) /etc/flexbackup.conf syntax OK
$keyfile not found in config: default=00-index-key
$buffer_fill_pct not found in config: default=75

Backup terminated: backup failed - status: 256
I'm using a Dell PowerVault 114T LTO-3 tape unit
mt -f /dev/st0 status tells me the device is online
Could it possibly be block or buffer size
Any idea's anyone
