Part of bringing up Amanda, working to get mtx configured correctly.  Seeing 
initial setup OK, but then unable to load a tape.

Here's the setup:

- PC 300GL server (266MHz PII), Adaptec 2940US

- RH 7.1 w/ mtx 1.2.18

must use "noattach" option and get the following

 [mark@StorPORH1 mark]$ mtx -f /dev/sg0 noattach status
   Storage Changer /dev/sg0:1 Drives, 4 Slots ( 0 Import/Export )
 Data Transfer Element 0:Empty
       Storage Element 1:Full
       Storage Element 2:Full
       Storage Element 3:Full
       Storage Element 4:Full
 [mark@StorPORH1 mark]$

 But can't get a tape to load: 
 [mark@StorPORH1 mark]$ mtx -f /dev/sg0 noattach load 1
 mtx: Request Sense: Long Report=yes
 mtx: Request Sense: Valid Residual=no
 mtx: Request Sense: Error Code=70 (Current)
 mtx: Request Sense: Sense Key=Illegal Request
 mtx: Request Sense: FileMark=no
 mtx: Request Sense: EOM=no
 mtx: Request Sense: ILI=no
 mtx: Request Sense: Additional Sense Code = 20
 mtx: Request Sense: Additional Sense Qualifier = 00
 mtx: Request Sense: Field in Error = 07
 mtx: Request Sense: BPV=yes
 mtx: Request Sense: Error in CDB=yes
 mtx: Request Sense: SKSV=yes
 mtx: Request Sense: Field Pointer = 00 00
 MOVE MEDIUM from Element Address 2 to 1 Failed
 [mark@StorPORH1 mark]$

Now should I see two LUNs in /proc/scsi/scsi ?

[mark@storporh1 mark]$ more /proc/scsi/scsi
Attached devices:
Host: scsi0 Channel: 00 Id: 03 Lun: 00
  Vendor: SEAGATE  Model: AIT-LDR          Rev: L1j4
  Type:   Sequential-Access                ANSI SCSI revision: 02
[mark@storporh1 mark]$
 
Any ideas ? 
 
Cheers de Mark @ 7tronics
