Hello,

I ran into an issue over the weekend where my tape library didn't know
which slot to return a tape in the drive. I have a Qualstar RLS-8236
tape library - 2 LTO tape drives 36 tape slots.

I believe mtx -f ... status for the drives returned "Unknown Storage
Element" so when mtx-changer asked, the changer didn't know where to
return the tape.

Now bacula knew the tapes went into slots 1 and 6 because the volume
entry in the DB said the tapes should be in slots 1 and 6. 

My question is - How can I get bacula to put the tape into the correct
slot when the library doesn't know (remember) which slot it came from?

Is there something that can be done to the mtx-changer script so that it
can return the tape to the correct slot?

Thank you in advance for your help and pointers. 

Tom.
