Hi!
I want to replace Arkeia 4 with bacula 1.36.3 running on a Solaris 2.6
machine with a HP C5713A DDS 4 autochanger. I think I've already managed
to configure everything but bacula failes very often because it's not
able to run mtx-changer properly. It looks like the device is busy. I'm
using /dev/rmt/0cbn for the archive and the control device. I hope
that's okay?
I've attached my configuration files and my slightly modified
mtx-changer script (only changed the first line from /bin/sh to /bin/ksh).
Thanks for any support,
Alex.

# If you set in your Device resource
#
# Changer Command = "path-to-this-script/mtx-changer" %c %o %S %a %d
# you will have the following input to this script:
#
# mtx-changer "changer-device" "command" "slot" "archive-device" "drive-index"
# $1 $2 $3 $4 $5
#
# for example:
#
# mtx-changer /dev/sg0 load 1 /dev/nst0 0 (on a Linux system)
#
# If you need to an offline, refer to the drive as $4
# e.g. mt -f $4 offline
#
# Many changers need an offline after the unload. Also many
# changers need a sleep 60 after the mtx load.
#
# N.B. If you change the script, take care to return either
# the mtx exit code or a 0. If the script exits with a non-zero
# exit code, Bacula will assume the request failed.
