Steven,
I committed the attached patch which will not report DATA-ERROR error if
there is a problem with the changer.

mtx fail, look in the chg-zd-mtx debug file for the reason.
I suggest you stop using chg-zd-mtx and start using chg-robot, it
should be as simple as adding the following to amanda.conf:
define changer my_robot {
tpchanger "chg-robot:/dev/sg??"
changerfile "/etc/amanda/gen/chg-robot.state"
property "tape-device" "0=tape:/dev/nst?"
property "use-slots" "1-??"
property "verbose" "yes"
device-property "LEOM" "TRUE"
}
tpchanger "my_robot"
Replace the '?' by your device values and slot.
