Hello,

I have a couple of alphaserver 2000 5/250 running DU 4.0.

I am looking for something like the Exabyte EXB-210 Library.
(An 8mm drive with an autochanger)

The Exabyte EXB-210 would be perfect, except I can't find any
software that will allow me to access the tape handeler from a shell
script.

I want to keep using my existing shell scripts, (tar,cpio,dump,dd,etc...)
But would like to be able to use the loader.
(something like "move tape from slot 3 to drive 1"

Any recommendations on software/hardware?


I currently have a system from Cybernetics, but it's been a month now and
it still isn't working. (plagued with problems)


Brian
