Hello: I'm still working on getting Bacula running here and have it working well with 2 of 3 tape drives (A Pair of HP DD3 Autochangers C1553A) however I'm having something of a problem with the 3rd device, an Exabyte EZ-17 unit.
I can perform the btape test and auto perfectly, however I get in trouble when working through the test sequence on p.296 of the 1.36.3 manual as shown below, the unload fails. What do I need to do to make this function correctly? There is a tape in the drive from slot 1 which is why its not showing.

I'm guessing the unit needs a power cycle to reset at this point however I'm not physically in front of it to tell at this time, it still reports the following mtx status: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# mtx -f /dev/sg0 status Storage Changer /dev/sg0:1 Drives, 7 Slots ( 0 Import/Export ) Data Transfer Element 0:Full (Storage Element 1 Loaded) Storage Element 1:Empty Storage Element 2:Full Storage Element 3:Full Storage Element 4:Full Storage Element 5:Full Storage Element 6:Full Storage Element 7:Full tapeinfo -f /dev/sg0 Product Type: Medium Changer Vendor ID: 'EXABYTE ' Product ID: 'EXB-210 ' Revision: '1.06' Attached Changer: No SerialNumber: '38002496 ' SCSI ID: 0 SCSI LUN: 0 Ready: yes [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# loaderinfo -f /dev/sg0 Product Type: Medium Changer Vendor ID: 'EXABYTE ' Product ID: 'EXB-210 ' Revision: '1.06' Attached Changer: No Bar Code Reader: No EAAP: Yes Number of Medium Transport Elements: 1 Number of Storage Elements: 7 Number of Import/Export Element Elements: 0 Number of Data Transfer Elements: 1 Transport Geometry Descriptor Page: Yes Invertable: No Device Configuration Page: Yes Can Transfer: Yes [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# tapeinfo -f /dev/sg5 Product Type: Tape Drive Vendor ID: 'EXABYTE ' Product ID: 'EXB-89008E00012F' Revision: 'V39e' Attached Changer: No SerialNumber: '0060089150' MinBlock:1 MaxBlock:245760 SCSI ID: 6 SCSI LUN: 0 Ready: yes BufferedMode: yes Medium Type: 0xd2 Density Code: 0x27 BlockSize: 0 DataCompEnabled: yes DataCompCapable: yes DataDeCompEnabled: yes CompType: 0x10 DeCompType: 0x10 Block Position: 2 [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# loaderinfo -f /dev/sg5 Product Type: Tape Drive Vendor ID: 'EXABYTE ' Product ID: 'EXB-89008E00012F' Revision: 'V39e' Attached Changer: No Bar Code Reader: No EAAP: No Transport Geometry Descriptor Page: No Device Configuration Page: No ===[George R.
