2.4.3
Here is some description of the problem.
I have a TreeFrog AIT-2 library with 2 drives and 30 slots.
chg-scsi.conf defines 4 configs (pools). I'll number slots staring from
1, not from 0. Just to be consistent with the "mtx status" output below.
1. slots 1-14, drive 0
2. slot 15, drive 0
3. slots 16-22, drive 1
4. slots 23-30, drive 1
Now see "mtx status" output below. If I start loading tape from a slot
16 that should use drive 1, changer will obviously unload drive 1 first,
which currently has tape from slot 26. Surprisingly that tape will go to
slot 7 (which is first empty slot in the library) instead of going to
slot 26. So it looks like chg-scsi does not care about what slot the
tape that is currently is in the drive belongs to.
