>Release: FreeBSD 4.0-STABLE i386
>Organization:
Waterpout Communications, Inc.
>Environment:
Most versions of FreeBSD.
>Description:
chio(1) provides no mechanism to select media by "voltag."
chio(1) provides no mechanism to return a media unit to its source.
>How-To-Repeat:
N/A - new feature request.
>Fix:
o A pseudo-element type selector "voltag" that can be used to select
source elements:
chio move voltag VOLUME-03 drive 0
chio exchange voltag VOLUME-03 voltag VOLUME-04
o A new sub-command "unload" that returns a media unit to the source
element reported by 'chio status -a':
chio unload drive 0
chio unload voltag VOLUME-03
A patch relative to 4.1-STABLE (should work on 5.0-CURRENT as well) is
