2. Project Summary
2.1. Project Description
This project introduces the package of MTX 1.3.11, a set of media
changer tools into the SFW consolidation.
4. Technical Description
MTX is a set of low level driver programs to control features of SCSI
backup related devices such as autoloaders, tape changers, media
jukeboxes, and tape drives. It can also report much data, including
serial numbers, maximum block sizes, and TapeAlert? messages that most
modern tape drives implement, as well as do raw SCSI READ and WRITE
commands to tape drives. MTX is designed to be a low level driver in
a larger scripted backup solution, such as Bacula or Amanda. MTX is not
supposed to itself be a high level interface to the SCSI devices that
it controls.
