Hi,
Following up my own post. I downloaded forte for C from sun,
compiled sst as the 64bit version and have that working. amtape could
read the label off a tape in the drive. However, after I unmounted the
tape, I could not get any other tapes mounted (it thinks all the slots
are empty). I'm using these values in my amanda.conf.
tpchanger "chg-multi"
tapedev "/dev/rmt/0cn"
changerfile "/opt/amanda/normal/changer.conf"
changerdev "/dev/rsst0"
And here is changer.conf
multieject 0
firstslot 1
lastslot 8
gravity 0
needeject 1
ejectdelay 0
statefile /opt/amanda/normal/autoloader.state
cleancart 8
cleanfile /opt/amanda/normal/DLT7000-clean
usagecount /opt/amanda/normal/totaltime
tapestatus /opt/amanda/normal/DLT7000-status
slot 1 /dev/rmt/0cn
slot 2 /dev/rmt/0cn
slot 3 /dev/rmt/0cn
slot 4 /dev/rmt/0cn
slot 5 /dev/rmt/0cn
slot 6 /dev/rmt/0cn
slot 7 /dev/rmt/0cn
slot 8 /dev/rmt/0cn
There is one more question - under sol26 + exabyte changer driver,
sometimes, amanda would load a tape but get confused, and think there's
no tape in the drive. I would have to do a "chs deselect -d1" to
unmount the tape. Since chs does not exist here anymore, what is the
equivalent command? Just use mt? Thanx for any help.
