Now, the confusion in setting up chg-scsi seems to be mainly centered around how you specify the tape device, both in amanda.conf and in chg-scsi.conf. Or at least that was the source of my confusion early on.
OK, having looked at your files and changed my own, I'm still no closer. I now get this:
bash-2.05b# sudo -u operator /usr/local/sbin/amcheck ltsn
Amanda Tape Server Host Check
-----------------------------
Holding disk /home/amanda/holding: 47180616 KB disk space available, that's plenty
amcheck-server: could not get changer info: open: /dev/ch0: Bad file descriptor
Can anyone see any problems with these rrelevant portions of amanda.conf:
runtapes 1 # number of tapes to be used in a single run of amdump
tpchanger "chg-scsi" # the tape-changer glue script
tapedev "0" # the no-rewind tape device to be used
rawtapedev "/dev/null" # the raw device to be used (ftape only)
changerfile "/usr/local/etc/amanda/ltsn/chg-scsi.conf"
#changerdev "/dev/ch0"
maxdumpsize -1 # Maximum number of bytes the planner will schedule
# for a run (default: runtapes * tape_length).
tapetype DLT # what kind of tape it is (see tapetypes below)
labelstr "^ltsn[0-9][0-9]*$" # label constraint regex: all tapes must match
amrecover_do_fsf yes # amrecover will call amrestore with the
# -f flag for faster positioning of the tape.
amrecover_check_label yes # amrecover will call amrestore with the
# -l flag to check the label.
amrecover_changer "chg-scsi" # amrecover will use the changer if you restore
# from this device.
# It could be a string like 'changer' and
# amrecover will use your changer if you
# set your tape with 'settape changer'
And chg-scsi.conf:
# chg-scsi for Dell Power Vault 120T number_configs 1 # Only 1 configuration
eject 1 # Tapedrives need an eject command
sleep 90 # Seconds to wait until the tape gets ready
cleanmax 100 # How many times could a cleaning tape get used
debug 9:0 # High debug level please
scsitapedev /dev/nrst0 # Non-rewinding tape device
changerdev /dev/ch0 # Jukebox changer
# Configuration 0
config 0 # ID for this configuration
drivenum 0 # Use drive id 0
dev /dev/nrst0 # the device that is used for the tapedrive 0
startuse 0 # The slots associated with the drive 0
enduse 6 # Final slot to use
statfile /usr/local/etc/amanda/ltsn/chg-scsi-slot # The file where the actual slot is stored
usagecount /usr/local/etc/amanda/ltsn/totaltime # Statistics file
