RE: RH 7.1 & Sony TSL-S11000
Steve, I ran into this problem with my HP library, It turned out I was trying to change the tape with the tape device and not the changer device. (Often time there are two devices linked to a changer or Library) for me the changer is /dev/sg0. Hope that helps Mike -Original Message- From: Steven Sweet [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, August 31, 2001 10:20 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RH 7.1 & Sony TSL-S11000 I was wondering if anyone has gotten a tape changing script working with RH7.1 and a Sony TSL-S11000 tape library. I've checked the FAQ and not seen this model mentioned. Everything in Amanda seems to be working fine except for the tape changing. I'm close, I'm sure its something small, but I'm short on time. On the first try of amdump the tape changes to the appropriate tape for the day, but Amanda doesn't seem to realize its already been changed. It complains that it can't put the tape away because the slot is already full. If you run amdump again immediately it works (since the tape has already been changed). I'm working off a script mentioned in the mailing list archive: chg-csee-mtx. Anyone have the script ironed out already? Thanks. Steve

This will allow you to figure out exactly what's working and what's not. Once you're convinced amtape is working properly, then go try amdump. > I'm working off a script mentioned in the mailing > list archive: chg-csee-mtx. Not sure what this is but it's certainly not one of the scripts included with amanda. You'll probably have to talk to the author for questions specific to this script. -Mitch
