Hi All,

I have been using a LT04 Tape for backup. And now I received a new LT04
Quantum Superloader.

I am trying to get it working but it is not.

My config is as follows,

amanda.conf

runtapes 2
tpchanger "chg-zd-mtx"
changerfile "/var/lib/amanda/changer.conf"
changerdev "/dev/sg0"
tapetype LTO-4
tapedev "/dev/nst0"
labelstr "^CLN14[1-2]L2*$"
amrecover_changer "chg-zd-mtx"


changer.conf

eject > 1 # Tapedrives need an eject command
sleep 10 # Seconds to wait until the tape gets ready
cleanmax 10
havebarcode 1
havereader=1
offline_before_unload=1
offlinestatus=1
OFFLINE_BEFORE_UNLOAD=1

Anyone has an idea, what is wrong.

Thanks

Prashant,

What exactly does not work?

And you do know you're probably working with only cleaning tapes?
