Hi, Tom:
Thank you very much for your suggestion!
I tried to add the "changerident FastStor_DLT" to my changer.conf file
and rerun "amtape daily show", I still got the same error "scanning
all 7 slots in tape-changer rack: slot1: date X Label DailySet11
amtape: could not load slot DeviceCapabilitiesPage: == NULL."
Below is my changer.conf file and debug file, can you pls take a look
to see what is wrong with it... I appreciate your help!!!
