Check that the /dev/rmt/* entries match the devices in the robot. You can
see if they do by inserting a tape into the drive and then issuing a
mt -f /dev/rmt/* status for the /dev/rmt/ number you have the drive
configured
to. It should show a device is present, if not then you have a
configuration
issue.
