Having some minor issues with Amanda on OpenBSD3.4, talking to a Dell Powervault 120T 7-slot changer/drive. After eventually working my way through the changer scripts I've found that chg-chio is the one for me. chg-scsi, couldn't figure out the configuration files and couldn't take to the jukebox, but chg-chio, using the chio program works fine.
I am using linux and amanda to drive the same Dell changer - but I use
chg-zd-mtx for this. This changer user the mtx command to do the actual
work. mtx is included in our redhat installation, but the chg-zd-mtx
script also gives a sourceforge URL should you wish to try it on
OpenBSD.

All this is guesswork, but may help you.
Thanks, I will give this a try. Is there much configuration required for chg-zd-mtx?
