The slots are numbered from bottom to top (1 through 10), and the drive is
numbered 0.
The jukebox can be specified either by using the logical jukebox name or
by specifying the SCSI robotics and drive paths.
EXAMPLES
To move the tape jukebox, TJB01 in slot address 4, to the drive at address
0, key in one of the following commands:
tjb_move TJB01 4 0
tjb_move -r /dev/gs/s3u0 -d /dev/gs/s5u0 4 0

NOTES
The tjb_move command requires superuser privileges.
CAUTIONS
The tjb commands check if the drive (/dev/rmt/mt?) is in use only at the
beginning of the command. If any tape operation is started after a tjb
command is initiated, the tjb command may eject the tape from the drive
and cause a no media in drive error for the tape operation.
DIAGNOSTICS
The following is a list of common error messages and their meanings:
ERROR: No media at specified source location
Failed to move media from 4 to 0
There was no tape cartridge at the specified slot address 4.
ERROR: Destination slot already occupied
The to address has a tape cartridge. The tape in the from address
is replaced in the from slot.
No information for jukebox "MY_TJB" in configuration file
The logical name MY_TJB cannot be found in /etc/TJBCFG. The
configuration file may be missing the =, {, or } characters.
get_status: Device busy
Failed to get drive status information
If the tape drive door is closed, the file /dev/rmt/mt* is checked
to see if the drive is in use.
ERROR: Door open
Failed to move media from 0 to 1
The jukebox door was opened while a move operation was in progress.
Unit attention detected, performing reset
A reset is performed before the next command (unless the command is
tjb_reset or tjb_exercise) if the jukebox door has been opened, or
a SCSI bus reset has occurred.
