That would almost be my case, except both
of my config’s would run off the same tape changer. I guess I will find
out tomorrow if it works.
Figured out what the error was, my changer
file was pointing to the other configuration for drive 0.
Can anyone still answer this question?
Quick question will Amanda work correctly with two different
configurations, each one using a tape drive running at the same time?

Ex.
Data Transfer Element 0:Empty
Data Transfer Element 1:Full (Storage Element 9
Loaded):VolumeTag = EGV010 these are my 2 drives.
However,
When I try to run
/opt/amanda/server/sbin/amlabel -f FullDB EGV010 slot 9
Here is the error I get
“amlabel: could not load slot "9": Drive not
ready after 120 seconds, rewind said "/dev/rmt/3cn:"Drive not ready
after no seconds, rewind said "tape"Drive not ready after loaded
seconds, rewind said "or"Drive not ready after drive seconds, rewind
said "offline"”
The tape EGV010 always goes to drive 0 instead of 1.
mtx -f /dev/scsi/changer/c5t3d1 status
Storage Changer /dev/scsi/changer/c5t3d1:2 Drives, 24
Slots ( 1 Import/Export )
Data Transfer Element 0:Full (Storage Element 9

Here are the conf files for FullDB
cat changer.conf

driveslot=1
cleanslot=-1
autoclean=0
autocleancount=99
havereader=1
