The -genconf did identify my two tape drives, however, it only produced a
single config. It also didn't generate any information for the amanda.conf
file, only the chg-scsi.conf file.
Here is the output:
# ~/libexec/chg-scsi bash$ ./chg-scsi -genconf
Count 1
Count 2
# Please replace every ??? with the correct parameter. It is not possible
# to guess everything :-)
# If the option is not needed, cleanmax for example if you have no cleaning
# tape remove the line.
#
number_configs 1 # Number of configs, you can have more than 1 config
# if you have for example more than one drive, or you
# to split your lib to use different dump levels
#
emubarcode 1 # If you drive has no barcode reader this will try
# keep an inventory of your tapes to find them faster
#
havebarcode 0 # Set this to 1 if you have an library with an installed
# barcode reader
#
debuglevel 0:0 # For debuging, see the docs /docs/TAPE-CHANGER
#
eject ??? # set this to 1 if your drive needs an eject before move
#
sleep ??? # How long to wait after an eject command before moving
# the tape
#
changerdev /dev/sg0 # This is the device to communicate with the robot
#
# Here now comes the config for the first tape
config 0 # This value is the one which is used in the amanda
# config file to tell the chg-scsi programm which tape
# and which slots to use
#
cleancart ??? # The slot where the cleaning tape is located
# remove it if you have no cleaning tape
#
drivenum 0 # Which tape drive to use if there are more than one drive
#
dev ??? # Which is the raw device to read/write data from the tape
# It is important to use the non rewinding tape, like
# /dev/nrst0 on linux, /dev/nrsa0 on BSD ....
#
startuse 0 # Which is the first slot to use
#
enduse 24 # Which is the last slot to use
# decrement this value by 1 if you have an
# cleaning tape in the last slot
