Update #2: For future reference for this list;

Another list member suggested I just uncomment the following;

**snip**

You need to uncomment explicit eject command in the mtx-changer script
(commented out by default since many changers do not need it):

case $cmd in
   unload)
      debug "Doing mtx -f $ctl unload $slot $drive"
#
# enable the following line if you need to eject the cartridge
      mt -f $device offline
      sleep 10
      ${MTX} -f $ctl unload $slot $drive
      ;;

**snip**

Works perfectly now. Thought I should update this posting because I came 
across several misinformed solutions while searching for answers.

Thanks Ivan :).

Testing in trying to get my changer to work. The drive seems to be doing fine, 
the btape test goes well. The autochanger on the other hand, I can't seem to 
find enough information to resolve problems.

For example, I am able to load a tape from slot 1;
/etc/bacula/mtx-changer /dev/sg0 load 1 /dev/nst0 0

However, I cannot unload it;

# /etc/bacula/mtx-changer /dev/sg0 unload 1 /dev/nst0 0

Unloading Data Transfer Element into Storage Element 1...mtx: Request Sense: 
Long Report=yes
mtx: Request Sense: Valid Residual=no
mtx: Request Sense: Error Code=70 (Current)
mtx: Request Sense: Sense Key=Illegal Request
mtx: Request Sense: FileMark=no
mtx: Request Sense: EOM=no
mtx: Request Sense: ILI=no
mtx: Request Sense: Additional Sense Code = 3B
mtx: Request Sense: Additional Sense Qualifier = 90
mtx: Request Sense: Field in Error = 00
mtx: Request Sense: BPV=no
mtx: Request Sense: Error in CDB=yes
mtx: Request Sense: SKSV=yes
mtx: Request Sense: Field Pointer = 0B 00
MOVE MEDIUM from Element Address 63000 to 0 Failed

Any help would be appreciated.

Mike
