At the end of our weekly cycle I would like to command
our loader to unload any tapes that are in the drive
to make for easy tape swapping.  With versions of bacula
prior to 1.38 the director daemon was running as root,
so ejecting the tape was a simple matter of creating a
job that ran an "mtx unload" as a RunBeforeJob rule.
Now that bacula-dir is running as the bacula user for
security, the bacula-dir no longer has permission to run
mtx commands directly.  I was wondering if there is a way
I can command bacula-sd to eject the tapes on behalf of the
director.

Is there any way to do this?
