I use mtx-changer and in there you will find the list command (around line 171). This uses the mtx status command to get the list of tapes. Try that command manually. f that doesn't work for you from the command line, you've got to find another way to get the list of volumes from the tape library. -- Dan Langille - http://langille.org ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Ridiculously easy VDI.
