Hi,

How do I update the "changer-barcodes" file under AMANDA 2.5.0?  The
update command is missing from amtape:

amtape: unknown command "update"
Usage: amtape <conf> <command>
       Valid commands are:
               reset                Reset changer to known state
               eject                Eject current tape from drive
               clean                Clean the drive
               show                 Show contents of all slots
               current              Show contents of current slot
               slot <slot #>        load tape from slot <slot #>
               slot current         load tape from current slot
               slot prev            load tape from previous slot
               slot next            load tape from next slot
               slot advance         advance to next slot but do not load
               slot first           load tape from first slot
               slot last            load tape from last slot
               label <label>        find and load labeled tape
               taper                perform taper's scan alg.
               device               show current tape device


... it's still mentioned in the man page:

update Update the changer label database, if it has one, to match the tapes now available.

thanks,
 alan
