Rock on! I complained about that a while ago. Since 1.2.10 uses CHANGER, I would set chg-zd-mtx to use CHANGER and say that it requires 1.2.10 or above. --Joe, running to update from 1.2.9 to 1.2.10 ;-) On Sat, Mar 03, 2001 at 12:43:15AM -0500, Jason Hollinden wrote: Now I'm more confused.

Here is a patch for the current CVS version of chg-zd-mtx.sh.in that changes the $TAPE variable to $CHANGER. It was only used 3 times, so it was pretty painless. On Thu, 01 Mar 2001, Joe Rhett wrote: As others have said, it uses the TAPE environment variable. I wish we could convince the

Sorry - wrong maintainer. The problem isn't chg-zd-mtx, it's the 'mtx' program itself which uses the $TAPE environment variable. Sorry for the confusion. On Fri, Mar 02, 2001 at 09:22:44AM -0500, Jason Hollinden wrote: Here is a patch for the current CVS version of chg-zd-mtx.sh.in that

Now I'm more confused. :) The docs for mtx-1.2.10 say to use CHANGER, while the older versions seemed to use TAPE. I assume that's why the chg-zd-mtx was written with the $TAPE variable. 1.2.10 also will honor TAPE or CHANGER, which was why I had never changed it before. If if it doesn't

I'll change it in the chg-zd-mtx.sh.in tomorrow, and post a patch against the current CVS tree to here and amanda-hackers. The last one I posted was based off the one you listed below, and I did my best not to alter how it worked with non-barcode drives and whatnot. If you want to build off

I'm trying to get my first tape changer working, and I'm a little confused. It appears that I need to use the chg-zd-mtx scriptm but the version of mtx that I have is used like this: mtx -f /dev/sg0 next for instance. Now it appears to me that chg-zd-mtx just runs mtx like this: mtx next

Inside the chg-zd-mtx, it sets the TAPE environment variable, which works the same as the CHANGER that's listed in the mtx docs. On Wed, 28 Feb 2001, Stan Brown wrote: I'm trying to get my first tape changer working, and I'm a little confused. It appears that I need to use the chg-zd-mtx
