Hi.

I have TSL-11000 drive with only 1 dds4 tape.

When drive is unloaded, like this:

# mtx -f /dev/sg1 status
  Storage Changer /dev/sg1:1 Drives, 8 Slots ( 0 Import/Export )
Data Transfer Element 0:Empty
      Storage Element 1:Empty
      Storage Element 2:Empty
      Storage Element 3:Empty
      Storage Element 4:Empty
      Storage Element 5:Empty
      Storage Element 6:Empty
      Storage Element 7:Empty
      Storage Element 8:Full 


and I do amdump everthing runs fine.
Now I do amdump again and it complains that new tape was not found in rack.

# mtx -f /dev/sg1 status
  Storage Changer /dev/sg1:1 Drives, 8 Slots ( 0 Import/Export )
Data Transfer Element 0:Full (Storage Element 1 Loaded)
      Storage Element 1:Empty
      Storage Element 2:Empty
      Storage Element 3:Empty
      Storage Element 4:Empty
      Storage Element 5:Empty
      Storage Element 6:Empty
      Storage Element 7:Empty
      Storage Element 8:Empty

Questin is that why doesnt changer (chg-zd-mtx doesnt unload it ?).

in /etc/amanda/Conf1/chg-scsi-linux.conf I have :

firstslot=8
lastslot=8
cleanslot=-1
#autoclean=1
#autocleancount=99
offline_before_unload=0
unloadpause=0
#cleancycle=120
