Works for me.

If you do:

tgt-admin -e -v

Do you see the following output?


# Device /mnt/1/notape1 is used (already tgtd target?).
# Run 'lsof /mnt/1/notape1' to see the details.
# Skipping device /mnt/1/notape1 - it is in use.
# You can override it with --force or 'allow-in-use yes' config option.


By default, we don't allow to use one block device more than once, as it can mean corruption when used by more than one initiator.


If this was the case for you, just add "allow-in-use yes" to the target configuration:


<target iqn.2008-09.com.example:server.tape>
allow-in-use yes
<backing-store /mnt/1/notape>
        lun 1
(...)
Hi Tomasz,

yes, that was exactly it. I wasn't aware of the allow-in-use option, but it works.

Now the only other thing left is the multiple element_type stuff used for the changer device.
