Hi All

I have Dell™ PowerVault™ 122T LTO-2 tape drive with autoloader, Now 
I have 5 tapes loaded in the Tape Drive, 
Now when I give the below command
#mt -f /dev/nst0 rewind
/dev/nst0: No medium found
mt: The device is offline (not powered on, no tape ?).
#

Please advice and guide me.

No -- you have 5 tapes in the loader.

 Now when I give the below command

Err, was there a tape in the drive?  I'm guessing there wasn't.  You need 
to use 'mtx' to manipulate the loader.  'mt' just deals with the tape 
drive itself.
