What version of mtx are you using?  I looked at the sources for 1.2.13
(and 1.2.11) and don't see how it can generate this line.  It always
includes the device number, e.g.:

  Data Transfer Element 128:  Full (Unknown Storage Element Loaded)

Also, what do you have tapedev set to in amanda.conf?

>BTW the chg-zd-mtx does only run mtx status (without the -f option).

That's because it sets the TAPE environment variable from the changerdev
value in amanda.conf.  Mtx will use that if -f is not on the command line.
