I figured that part out, and running mtx -f /dev/sg0 inquiry then again for sg1
showed that my drive was on sg0 and the autoloader was on sg1.
All the mtx and amtape commands work when being run as the root user, so I
don't think this is a configuration file issue. I think it's more of a setup
I'm getting closer and it's a SuSE specific problem.
Using SuSE the devices in /dev have only +r rights for group. If I manually add
+w for group access I can run amtape tests successfully, so maybe it's a
problem with udev that is used to create the devices during boot.
I will go to the SuSE

How is length calculated? I would think that the length should be closer to

With amanda 2.5.0p2 I cannot label new tapes:
backup:~$ /usr/sbin/amlabel WeeklySet1 Set1-4-12 slot 12
changer: got exit: 0 str: 12 /dev/overland-sdlt600-tape
labeling tape in slot 12 (/dev/overland-sdlt600-tape):
rewinding, reading label, n
I found it.
It was udev causing the problems, which I can only thing must be a problem for
many SuSE users running amanda with tape changers out there.
In /etc/udev/rules.d/50-udev-default.rules there is a line to create sg*
devices like:
KERNEL=="sg*" NAME="%k", GROUP="disk", MODE="640"

Not brainwashed but not knowing what amtapetype was
Stephen,
Sorry, not amanda files but system /dev files, I lost track of your
OS but I have a robot on a linux system and have the following in my
amanda.conf file. you need proper protections on both /dev/nst0 and /dev/sg1
or whatever your OS calls your devices.

I did the things it suggested there... I checked inetd.conf on the server:

amidxtape stream tcp nowait backup /usr/local/libexec amidxtaped

To me it seems as if you have compiled Amanda as user "root", instead of
doing that as user "backup".
