Thank you Brian. That is almost what I have with the following differences:
AutomaticMount not set, default not defined in doc for version 2.4.
Drive Index not set but default works correctly.
AutoSelect not set but default is same as yours.
Maxmimum Changer Wait is higher on mine (30 minutes)
I think the differences should not matter and btape actually indicates multiple
tape backups work. However, there is an error in the log generated during the
multiple tape backup:
28-Feb 17:33 btape JobId 0: Error: block.c:568 Write error at 26:15457 on
device "Exabyte_VXA-2" (/dev/nst0). ERR=Input/output error.
28-Feb 17:33 btape JobId 0: Error: Backspace file at EOT failed.
ERR=Input/output error
Still, the backup appears to work:
17:37:30 Done filling tapes at 0:13. Now beginning re-read of first tape ...
28-Feb 17:37 btape JobId 0: 3307 Issuing autochanger "unload slot 2, drive 0"
command.
28-Feb 17:38 btape JobId 0: 3304 Issuing autochanger "load slot 1, drive 0"
command.
28-Feb 17:39 btape JobId 0: 3305 Autochanger "load slot 1, drive 0", status is
OK.

The first block on the second tape matches.
Reposition from 0:2 to 0:11
Reading block 11.
The last block on the second tape matches. Test succeeded.

I ran a test backup with real files, the largest which was over 7G. The
restore failed with an out of memory error.
