Obviously, the above assumption was wrong because btape crashes if I specify 
anything other then the autochanger's raw SCSI device as the ChangerDevice 
under Device resource for the tape drives.

Does this mean Device {...} will not localize variables specified inside them? 
What about other resources? I could not find anything in the documentation 
regarding the variables scope inside bacula-X.conf files.

Of course, I might simply hardcode /dev/sgX names into TapeAlert strings.

Thanks,
Ivan
