I have a ADIC FastStor DLT 7 on Suse 7.2 box, with the latest mtx (from sourceforge) and gnu tar 1.13.25 installed. I have downloaded the mtx-zd-chg.sh.in-243 script, compiled and installed amanda-2.5.0-20020502. My problem is this: When I run a "amcheck Daily1" I get: amcheck-server: could not get changer info: no slots available I have no problem running mtx commands... Any help would be greatly appreciated. My amanda.conf looks like this: org "Mycompany" mailto "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" dumpuser "amanda" inparallel 2 netusage 8000 Kbps dumpcycle 1 weeks runspercycle 4 tapecycle 5 tapes bumpsize 20 Mb bumpdays 1 bumpmult 4 etimeout 300 dtimeout 1800 ctimeout 30 tapebufs 20 runtapes 1 tpchanger "/etc/amanda/Daily1/chg-zd-mtx" tapedev "/dev/nst0" rawtapedev "/dev/null" changerfile "/etc/amanda/Daily1/changer" changerdev "/dev/sg0" tapetype DLT labelstr "^Daily1[0-9][0-9]*$" ...
