Hi!
This is my drive definition:
Device {
Name = IBM-ULT3580-TD4
Drive Index = 0
Media Type = Ultrium-LTO-4
Archive Device = /dev/nst0
AutomaticMount = yes;
AutoChanger = Yes
AlwaysOpen = yes;
RemovableMedia = yes;
RandomAccess = no;
TWO EOF = Yes;
Spool Directory = /cosa
Alert Command = "sh -c 'smartctl -H -l error %c'"
}
/cosa is tmpfs (~1.5GB)
