/dev/nst0 should be the non-rewinding tape device. I'm using a 4-tape AIT-2 changer on a Linux 2.4.12 system. A few lines from my amanda.conf file: runtapes 2 # number of tapes to be used in a single run of amdump tpchanger "chg-multi" # the tape-changer glue script tapedev "/dev/ntape" # the no-rewind tape device to be used rawtapedev "/dev/null" # the raw device to be used (ftape only) changerfile "chg-multi.conf" changerdev "/dev/ntape" chg-multi is in the same directory and I don't think I had to do anything to it. chg-multi.conf contains: multieject 0 gravity 0 needeject 1 ejectdelay 60 statefile changer-status firstslot 1 lastslot 4 slot 1 /dev/nst0 slot 2 /dev/nst0 slot 3 /dev/nst0 slot 4 /dev/nst0 -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] - HMC UNIX Systems Manager My opinions are my own and probably don't represent anything anyway.
