FYI I've added the following custom template to the backup system to
automatically eject the DAT tape after the backup has occured.
It has been tested on SME 5.12 & 5.50 with an DAT drive and a new Sony
SDT-10000
Now afte rmy backup has completed the tape is ejected automatically and I
can get 'unskilled users' to remove the tape and replace with anotehr tape.
In /etc/e-smith/templates-custom/sbin/e-smith/backup
create a new template ( I copied
/etc/e-smith/templates-custom/sbin/e-smith/backup/90rewind-tape and edited
it by changing the rewind to offline near the end of the file )
95eject-tape
{
use esmith::db;
local %services;
$services{'backup'} = $backup;
$OUT = '';
my $status = db_get_prop(\%services, 'backup', 'status');
if (defined $status && $status eq 'enabled')
{
my $device = db_get_prop(\%services, 'backup', 'Device')
|| "/dev/nst0";
$OUT .= "\n";
$OUT .= "/bin/mt -f \"$device\" offline";
}
}
