Xref: euryale.cc.adfa.oz.au comp.unix.bsd.bsdi.misc:7062 I am looking for some help trying to use the scsicmd program in controlling an Archive 4586np magazine DAT drive. I want to be able to position the magazine via the command line. I have the appropriate Archive DAT manual with the commands for controlling the drive and magazine but it seems to be written in a language totally foreign to the command reference discussed in the scsicmd man pages. I have been successful only in using the lu command. If you have any experience using the scsicmd program under BSDI 3.0 and dealing with magazine drives an or addressing luns I would appreciate hearing from you. Seagate tech support was interested in my problem but is having to do some research to see if they can help. Thanks peter
