I have been using amanda 2.4.2p2 on RedHat 7.3 with a Sony TSL-9000L
with the chg-multi glue script.  My devices I was using are:

/dev/nst0 and /dev/st0

All was well except for the problem of forgetting to mount a tape from
the magazine before a run or something like that.

So I decided to try the chg-zd-mtx script.  After installing mtx and
using it from the command line, at least doing mtx -f /dev/sg1 load and
unload command all was well.  Still unsure of what my no-rewind device
will be.

I reconfigured amanda and then attempted to do an amcheck and get the
following:

amcheck-server: could not get changer info: badly formed result from
changer: "/usr/local/libexec/chg-zd-mtx: [: too many arguments"

Probably wrong device, but not sure.  I have set the following in
amanda.conf:

tapedev "/dev/sg1"
rawtapedev "/dev/null"
changerfile "/usr/local/etc/amanda/daily/changer"
changerdev "/dev/sg1"

I think I have seen this error mentioned before but I have lost the
solution.

Thanks in advance
