# mt rewoffl

used to rewind and eject a tape cartrigde, if present. It rewinds but no
longer ejects, instead the unit just goes off-line.
Also, I'm seeing

Nov 21 17:49:50 jos /kernel: (sa0:ahc0:0:3:0): READ(06). CDB: 8 0 2 0 0 0
Nov 21 17:49:50 jos /kernel: (sa0:ahc0:0:3:0): UNIT ATTENTION asc:28,0
Nov 21 17:49:50 jos /kernel: (sa0:ahc0:0:3:0): Not ready to ready change,
medium may have changed

The tape drive is detected as

sa0 at ahc0 bus 0 target 3 lun 0
sa0: <HP C1533A A708> Removable Sequential Access SCSI-2 device
sa0: 10.000MB/s transfers (10.000MHz, offset 32)

``camcontrol eject 0:3:0'' does eject the media.

Is the new mt behavior intentional? Is ``camcontrol eject'' the preferred way
to eject media?

Thanks,
