OK this is simple stuff, right? My chg-zd-mtx config file shows: havereader=1 BUT Following the instructions in the chg-zd-mtx.config file I am testing, and do : * Run this: # # .../chg-zd-mtx -info # echo $? #### (or "echo $status" if you use csh/tcsh) I do this: sh chg-zd-mtx -info and I get 1 79 1 <--missing 4th # here!
(btw, what is the triple ... refer to? it's been a LONG time since I was in class...(;>) ** # The fourth number is optional. If you set $havereader to 1, it # will be "1", otherwise it will not be present. # (and next step isn't good either... sh chg-zd-mtx -reset Bus Error(coredump) echo $? 138 ** when I tried without the sh in front of command, it just closed the existing window, and couldn't read the results. --chg-zd-mtx.conf follows: # Last change 8/6 3:50PM Changed driveslot from 1 to 0, removed extra line in definition # changerdev /dev/scsi/changer/c1t0d0 # NOT in Roli's file firstslot=0 #### First storage slot (element) -- required lastslot=81 #### Last storage slot (element) -- required cleanslot=0 #### Slot with cleaner tape -- default is "-1" autoclean=0 #### Set to '1' or greater to enable autocleancount=99 #### Number of access before a clean. #havereader=1 #### If you have a barcode reader, set to 1. havereader=1 offline_before_unload=1 #### Does your robot require an mt offline? poll_drive_ready=05 #### Time (seconds) between tests to see if drive ready max_drive_wait=99 #### Maximum time (seconds) to wait for the unloadpause=6 #### delay between unloading and putting tape back driveslot=0 #### Drive slot number.
