I think we have a problem:
[dlangi...@backup01 bacula]$ sudo /usr/sbin/mtx -f /dev/sg4 load 3
[dlangi...@backup01 bacula]$ sudo /usr/sbin/mtx -f /dev/sg4 status
Storage Changer /dev/sg4:1 Drives, 38 Slots ( 36 Import/Export )
Data Transfer Element 0:Full (Unknown Storage Element Loaded):VolumeTag =
AAM240L4
Storage Element 1:Empty
Storage Element 2:Empty
Storage Element 3 IMPORT/EXPORT:Empty
Storage Element 4 IMPORT/EXPORT:Full :VolumeTag=AAM241L4
Should that 'Unknown Storage Element Loaded' be a 3 to indicate the slot
it came from?
