I have a DLT7000 scsi tape. Behavior of "camcontrol rescan all"
seems to have changed between FreeBSD stable of 2009-Nov-17 and
2011-Jan-11.
I execute the following sequence of commands:
# camcontrol eject sa0
# camcontrol rescan all
If there is a tape in the drive, the "eject" unloads it.
On the old system: the rescan command does not affect the state of the tape.
On the new system: the rescan command causes the tape to load. It seems
incorrect to me.
Is the new behavior a bug?
thanks,
