You could also use "mt" i.e

	Put a tape in one of the drives and:
	mt -f /dev/rmt/1 stat
	/dev/rmt/1: no tape loaded or drive offline

See which tape lights up.

If the drive you put the tape in lights up, you should get some information
about the drive and tape that is loaded.

If you get the response:

	mt -f /dev/rmt/1 stat
	/dev/rmt/1: No such file or directory

Then /dev/rmt/1 does not exist.  Try /dev/rmt/2.
