> As others have said, chg-zd-mtx or chg-scsi are probably what you want.
Many thanks to you 5 for your advice ! Each of you advised me to use the tpchanger "chg-zd-mtx" script as tpchanger. I did it and I can now load or unload (with amtape) without problem the tape from any slot I had to take the last version of chg-zd-mtx (given with amanda-2.4.3) because I had some problems with the previous one (given with amanda-2.4.2) Best regards Anne -- Anne Facq CRPP - Centre de Recherche Paul Pascal 115 Avenue Schweitzer 33600 PESSAC - FRANCE Mel : [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tel : 05 56 84 56 62 Fax : 05 56 84 56 00 http://www.crpp.u-bordeaux.fr
