Hi Jim, I will go and have a look on the Sony website for some PDFs, with the help of some members of the AMANDA mailling list I've managed to get it working fine on Solaris 9. I would be very pleased if you could send me the tapetype as it isn't in the Faq-O-Matic.

I use the chg-zd-mtx script. My os is linux though. I do have the sony docs and I will peruse through them to see if there is anything helpful. Also, I am pretty sure that I navigated through the Sony web and found pdf files for the 9000. If you need a tapetype respond back to the list and I will send one. Seems like the last one I ran was w/o HWCOMP so it is pretty accurate. Might save you about 5-7 hours of time.
