- We have purchased an Exabyte EXB-10 robotic drive with an Exabyte 8500 to be
- driven off of a SUN sparc box. The mt offline command will not unload the
- drive if no tape is present. I need a command to issue an unload to the drive.
- Anybody already done this so I don't have to become a scsi device driver expert?
- Or am I being stupid? Is there a better way?
-
- Thanks alot for any help!!
