Hi,  I did some tests with a configuration file which has an Autochanger with 
only two tapes and it works, so how can I extend the file to use the eight (8) 
tapes of my autoloader ?  I found only two devices in the /dev/ witch I 
identified as tape drives :

the /dev/st0 and /dev/nst0 ! and the autoloader is /dev/sg2

the complete list of devices is :

also here is the storage daemon configuration file part witch talks about my 
autochanger :

Autochanger {
  Name = Autochanger
  Device = Drive-1
  Device = Drive-2
#  Changer Command = "/home/kern/bacula/bin/mtx-changer %c %o %S %a %d"
  Changer Command = "/etc/bacula/mtx-changer %c %o %S %a %d"

  Changer Device = /dev/sg2
}

Device {
  Name = Drive-1                      #
  Drive Index = 0
  Media Type = DLT-8000
  Archive Device = /dev/st0
  AutomaticMount = yes;               # when device opened, read it
  AlwaysOpen = yes;
  RemovableMedia = yes;
  RandomAccess = no;
  AutoChanger = yes
  # Enable the Alert command only if you have the mtx package loaded
  Alert Command = "sh -c 'tapeinfo -f %c |grep TapeAlert|cat'"
#  If you have smartctl, enable this, it has more info than tapeinfo
  Alert Command = "sh -c 'smartctl -H -l error %c'"
}

Device {
  Name = Drive-2                      #
  Drive Index = 1
  Media Type = DLT-8000
  Archive Device = /dev/nst0
  AutomaticMount = yes;               # when device opened, read it
  AlwaysOpen = yes;
  RemovableMedia = yes;
  RandomAccess = no;
  AutoChanger = yes
  # Enable the Alert command only if you have the mtx package loaded
  Alert Command = "sh -c 'tapeinfo -f %c |grep TapeAlert|cat'"
#  If you have smartctl, enable this, it has more info than tapeinfo
  Alert Command = "sh -c 'smartctl -H -l error %c'"
}


how can I enlarge this definition to include the use of the eight tapes ?

thanks for helping ;-)
