Is there any way to get the online/offline status for a SCSI DAT drive?
I'm running 2.2.6 and am trying to get multi-tape support to work for
Amanda 2.4.0, but the multi-device script uses 'mt status' to probe for
the status of the drive.  Unfortunately, 'mt status' doesn't seem to
print anything other than density/compression information (certainly
nothing that seems related to whether there is a cartridge in the drive).
