Hi, I have an IBM LTO3 3581 autoloader on SuSE and the device to access the autoloader is /dev/sg2 st*, nst* are for the tape drive using a driver.
The sg devices are "raw" scsi, accessible without any driver, so I can access the autoloader this way: /dev/sg1: Drive /dev/sg2: Autoloader Try these commands to get information: cat /proc/scsi/sg/device_strs sg_scan -i scsiinfo -i /dev/sg2 scsiinfo -i /dev/sg1 Good luck!
