We have a VAX 6320 with TA90 cartridge tape drives (a.k.a. IBM 3480).
Is there a command to do a software unload of the cartridge from the
unit? There is a stacker on the tape drive which holds up to 7-8
cartridges - the ability to do an automatic unload of the tape from
software would be of enourmous benefit (such as a "hands-off" backup
by the operators). The documentation included with the device does
describe VMS commands for doing a software unload of the tape (Grrrrr.....)
I have not found any comparable command in the Ultrix 3.1 documentation set.
Any help would be appreciated.
