As you label tapes, amanda will populate a file named $CONFIG/CHANGER-barcodes, with a list of tape labels and their corresponding barcodes. Whether or not amanda uses this list, I don't actually know. But it can be very helpful to you at restore time. To get your barcode reader working, install mtx. -- Joshua Baker-LePain Department of Biomedical Engineering Duke University
