Just added a DDS drive to learn on myself. I've discovered the drive needs be cycled (right now I do it manually, but this is the purpose for the mtx script.)
unmount in bconsole. run mt -f /dev/nst0 offline as su back to bconsole run the job, then mount It should accept the tape and run the job. When the job is done, umount and go through the above process. Worked for me. There is a script for single drive that emulate an autochanger in the source tree. Haven't gotten that far myself.
