I asked the same on FreeBSD Forums, and a kind person called "Jose"=20 pointed this out: "It looks like the way to manage medium changers in Freebsd is=20 thechio(1)=20 command.=20 I also know that there's at least one person that successfully uses=20 Bacula with a medium changer in Freebsd Adding a tape library to Bacula =E2=80=93 Dan Langille's Other Diary"=20 chio is the think I was looking for, but it's not mentioned in the=20 documentation and you can't find it unless you know what you're looking=20 for - it's not even in the "See Also" section for mt.
