That's not it either. It went straight to the storage node and found
it the first time (since only the storage node and his drives were
chosen for the auto-config). SR3 appears to be working in that
respect. :)
Removing my 'drive 7' entry (the LTOs will be 7-9 to match the L700
spots) for the first LTO may not need to be removed then, but I had a
'drive 14' created by accident when I entered the starting sequence
wrong. So still need to remove at least one offending entry.
