Is it possible to automate the process of loading the needed tapes?
Yes. I'm using the following tape device setup to do this:
amrecover_changer "/dev/nrtape"
amrecover_do_fsf yes
amrecover_check_label yes
It's amrecover_changer that does the trick; essentially it tells
amrecover to use the tape changer or the tape device is set to /dev/nrtape.
I'm using this now too; works fine.
After each automatically loaded tape amrecover still prompts to
continue. Is this expected behaviour?
Unfortunately yes. I had a look in the sources, and currently
there is not (yet?) a way for the server to indicate that the
tape is found already, and that the client question to "proceed? [Y/n]"
can be skipped. And it's not added with a few lines of code either.
