Automatic Backup software

[ragwing]

I would like to know if anyone is using a single tape drive with multi
tapes to backup with amanda. I have a Sony AIT TSL-A300C tape unit. It
holds 4 AIT tapes 35G 70G compressed. I installed Amanda and mtx, but

mtx does not recognize the TLS correctly I get this error.](*,) 

I think I should be using /dev/sg0, but no such device

Tar works just fine on one tape at a time.



mtx -f /dev/nst0 status

mtx: Request Sense: Long Report=yes

mtx: Request Sense: Valid Residual=no

mtx: Request Sense: Error Code=0 (Unknown?!)

mtx: Request Sense: Sense Key=No Sense

mtx: Request Sense: FileMark=yes

mtx: Request Sense: EOM=yes

mtx: Request Sense: ILI=yes

mtx: Request Sense: Additional Sense Code = E0

mtx: Request Sense: Additional Sense Qualifier = D0

mtx: Request Sense: BPV=yes



Maybe the syntax is incorrect anyone got any Ideas.

Thanks

Rex
