root@stattmp ~$ mtx -f /dev/pass2 load 24 0
root@stattmp ~$ mtx -f /dev/pass2 status
   Storage Changer /dev/pass2:1 Drives, 24 Slots ( 1 Import/Export )
Data Transfer Element 0:Full (Storage Element 24 Loaded):VolumeTag = AEJ419L3
       Storage Element 1:Full :VolumeTag=AMH040L3
       Storage Element 2:Full :VolumeTag=AMH037L3
       Storage Element 3:Full :VolumeTag=AEJ404L3
