Well, if you want to do us a favour, please try to use the autoloader
with afbackup and hughe backups.

We need to move from our really small and slow DAT/DDS-4 tape to a
LTO/SDLT tape library or autoloader.

If you brought up your DLT autoloader, please move cartridges around
and watch whether you'll get the same error than I did. I get this error/warning
when a fresh magazine has been inserted.
