Kern: This is exactly the problem I posted last week and I am running 1.38.11 I know why it's occuring - people are running update slots against a particular tape drive instead of the autochanger And I know why they do that - running update slots against the changer only ever unloads drive 0, no matter which drive is actually specified. I know you don't regard it as a bug that when run this way, all the tapes in the changer end up associated with an individual drive, but I do. Additionally it's definitely a bug that update slots ignores any drive specfication. IE: *update slots The defined Storage resources are: 1: File 2: MSL6000-changer 3: MSL6000-0 4: MSL6000-1 5: DVD Select Storage resource (1-5): 2 Enter autochanger drive[0]: 1 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Connecting to Storage daemon MSL6000-changer at msslay.mssl.ucl.ac.uk:9103 ... 3306 Issuing autochanger "slots" command.
