Now I do amdump again and it complains that new tape was not found in rack. # mtx -f /dev/sg1 status Storage Changer /dev/sg1:1 Drives, 8 Slots ( 0 Import/Export ) Data Transfer Element 0:Full (Storage Element 1 Loaded) Storage Element 1:Empty Storage Element 2:Empty Storage Element 3:Empty Storage Element 4:Empty Storage Element 5:Empty Storage Element 6:Empty Storage Element 7:Empty Storage Element 8:Empty Questin is that why doesnt changer (chg-zd-mtx doesnt unload it ?). in /etc/amanda/Conf1/chg-scsi-linux.conf I have : firstslot=8 lastslot=8 cleanslot=-1 #autoclean=1 #autocleancount=99 offline_before_unload=0 unloadpause=0 #cleancycle=120 __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
