I am STILL trying to get amanda set up to run with an adic Scalar 458 changer with three DLT4000 drives.
After spending far too many hours reading and re-reading the docs and sample config files. I took a shot at building a configuration. I decided to try to label a tape. After that failed miserably, I decided to take a step back and just try to get chg-scsi to work. I started with the chg-scsi-linux.conf then I tried using the -genconf option. The best I can get out of either of them is "please check your config and use a config file for chg-scsi". The contents of changer.conf file (without comments) are: number_configs 1 emubarcode 0 havebarcode 1 debuglevel 9:0 eject 1 sleep 150 changerdev /dev/sg6 config 0 cleancart 46 cleanmax 20 drivenum 0 dev /dev/nrst0 scsitapedev /dev/sg7 startuse 0 enduse 35 statfile /etc/amanda/tape0-slot cleanfile /etc/amanda/tape0-clean usagecount /etc/amanda/tape0-totaltime tapestatus /etc/amanda/tape0-tapestatus labelfile /etc/amanda/labelfile --Richard
