Is the catalog up to date and represents the actual autochanger inventory? You can check that with a query for the autochanger contents, and update using the 'update slots' command. > Btw, > I didn't find (I'm not saying it couldn't be there somewhere anyway...) any > explanation about AutomaticMount option in the manual -I just found examples > with that line. ... Did your btape tests run correctly? If the configuration is correct, and the slots are updated, you can try producing a debug trace file of the SD and see what happens to prevent it from mounting the tape.
