Oooh, Oooh, me, I am, I am !

We moved from the StorEdge L9 to the C2, it was a simple drop
in with only the predictable minor modifications to amanda.conf
for changerdev and tapedev, well, plus the OS mod to support it.

The L9 had discrete SCSI id for the robot and the tape drive, with
the C2 its the SAME SCSI ID but unique LUN, I can provide details
if you need.

Its working fine, well, fine once we upgraded from v12 of the C2
firmware to v31 (where it was still flakey) and I was able to 
induce SUN to provide the patch for the v32 firmware, it wasn't
fully SUN aproved at the time but has been working fine and was
required for me to use the drive at all, since the "picker" just
wasn't operating properly.
