I'm now working on getting "update slots" working with multiple drive
autochangers. It currently works OK with a single drive changer by unloading
any loaded drive, then doing an mtx status. Now with a 30 drive autochanger,
it will be a bit of chaos to unload 30 drives just to update Bacula's slot
information, so I need to modify how it is done.
I did raise this point a while back... :-)
The appropriate information is already returned by mtx even for drives that
are loaded, so it is just a bit of painful script writing. However, I do not
have at hand any typical output for multiple drive autochangers with
barcodes.
This is a 2 drive barcoded HP MSL6060, aka Overland Neo4000
where you replace /dev/sgN with the control device name for your autochanger
- Send me the output from the above command, and I will make sure that
the new mtx-changer script is able to process it correctly without unloading
your drives :-)
