Thanks Jean, that was it. The tape drives themselves are /dev/nst0 and
/dev/nst1. I've got amtapetype working now, excellent. I'm trying to figure
out how to get the specifics on the different device modes (i.e.
/dev/nst0a, etc), but if I need help I'll make a separate post.

I must've been confused partly by the amtapetype man page which has
[config] as a parameter, but looking more closely, it's optional.

Tom and Jon, thanks for the great replies. I'm just getting back to this
project again.
I've tried this
amtapetype -f -b 524288 -t IBM-ULTRIUM-TD5 /dev/sg2 21 | tee
tapetype-ultrium-512k-block
and get this
amtapetype: Error writing label 'amtapetype-1614155207': File /dev/sg2 is
not a tape
/dev/sg2 is the changer device not the tape device, what is the tape
device? It is a /dev/nst? device

Hi,
I'm setting up amanda 3.3.4. I can't find a definiton for changer's drives
(IBM ULTRIUM-TD5 LTO-5) in /etc/amanda/template.d/tapetypes
Can someone point me to a source for this, or to where I can learn how to
determine the params I need for the drives? Thanks
