I'm not sure about that. I don't have any changer (I think..). I have not
configured properly my tape device in amanda.conf because I don't know which
TAPETYPE to use with my HP Colorado T4000s TRAVAN drive. When I run mt
commands like 'mt retension' seems to do it because the activity led lits
and starts making noise. When I do a 'mt status' I get:
