Hi,

I just erased a tape in our autochanger and tried:

jbverify -v -t -S 137

with this blank tape. What I saw was this:

 Processing jukebox L700e:

  checking if any of the drives are pre-loaded...
  checking device /dev/nst0...
  found drive /dev/nst0 loaded. Ejecting...
 Error in eject tape from drive /dev/nst0! Skipping...
  checking device /dev/nst1...
  found drive /dev/nst1 loaded. Ejecting...
 Error in eject tape from drive /dev/nst1! Skipping...
  checking device /dev/nst2...
  found drive /dev/nst2 loaded. Ejecting...
 Error in eject tape from drive /dev/nst2! Skipping...
  checking device /dev/nst3...

... and so on, then:

 Testing drive 1 (/dev/nst0) of JB L700e
  unable to proceed to test the drive as device is still loaded!
 Failed in testing drive 1(/dev/nst0) of JB L700e

Funny is: before starting the test, I made sure that no tapes are loaded
(nsrjb -u && nsrjb -HE).

Does this tell me that our Storagetek library and NW 6.1.4 do not talk to
each other properly? Do I have to set other features than volume_tags,
barcode, elements_status and read_elem_unload_fail? (These were set
automatically by jbconfig.)

Olaf
