I apologise if my initial post was difficult to read - I wanted to include all 
the diagnostics/steps performed to save lots of back and forth about our setup, 
what commands had been tried and so on.

The strange thing is - when it worked perfectly previously, nothing has changed 
since (eg, package versions, hardware, connectivity, etc). Absolutely strange.

Loading and unloading works perfectly through the web interface, however it 
WORKS perfectly with the mtx script too!! The script just SAYS it has failed - 
when in fact it has worked fine and loaded or unloaded the drive!!

Strangely enough, the error message happens on the Linux server a long time 
before the drive has finished it's load or unload operation.

I am stumped.
