Hi.
The sense data says a SCSI device/bus or power on reset occurred.
All is not well. I assume you're using Linux, from the /dev/sg1 reference. Get the
mtx package installed, and see what that makes of your changer.

Hello,
How do I get amanda to use the barcode reader on my brandnew
scsi-changer? (it's an independant changer with its own scsi-generic
interface)
the changer appears to work otherwise, though I haven't actually begun
testing backups on it...
the ./docs/TAPE.CHANGER file contains the following:
"To initialize the label mapping you can also do an amtape
config show. This will put the mapping for all tapes in the
magazine into the mapping file."
This doesn't work for me. enclosed is my changer.conf file and the
relevent entries from my amanda.conf file.
I would like to have amanda cross-reference barcodes to tape labels,
perhaps with an inventory control to verify barcode/amlabel mapping. if
amand needs a certain label, it tells the chager to load barcode #n.
//cut from amanda.conf
