[pbs-devel] [PATCH proxmox-backup 2/2] fix #4904: tape changer: add option to eject before unload

Thu Dec 7 13:51:02 CET 2023


some tape libraries need the tape being ejected from the drive before
doing an unload. Since we cannot easily detect if that's the case,
introduce an 'eject_before_unload' option.

Instead of just adding a bool flag to the config, add a new 'options'
property string where we can put such niche options similar to how we
handle the datastore tuning options.

Extend the LtoTapeHandle with 'medium_present' which just uses a
TEST UNIT READY command to check for present medium, so we don't
try to eject an already ejected tape.
