Ahh, you mean a "changer-api" to go along
with the infamous DUMPER-API?
Well... that _would_ actually be quite useful.  But I'm not holding
my breath waiting for it!  :-)

Are you using the Compaq MRU driver? If so, I have a changer script that
interfaces with the output of that driver. It may need mods for your version. I
dunno.

It would be really cool if a single changer glue module was re-written in an OOP
fashion, reusing the same logic code for every situation, but overriding the
driver interface methods for specific driver interfaces.

Changer files depend on the changer script you decide to use.
chg-mtx?
chg-zd-mtx?
chg-scsi?
chg-???

Does an mtx command exist and work on your system with your changer?
If so, the scripts describe pretty well what must go into the
changer files.

Changer file for Compaq MSL5000 series

2005-01-20 Thread Scheuerman, James 








Does anyone have a changer file for a Compaq MSL5000 series
library?  I’m trying to configure Amanda 2.4.4 on Compaq Tru64 5.1b.
