+Subject: [PATCH] udev-rules: make tape-changers also apprear in
+ /dev/tape/by-path/
+
+It is important to be able to access tape changer ("Medium Changers") by
+persistant name.
+While tape devices can be accessed via /dev/tape/by-id/ and
+/dev/tape/by-path/, tape-changers could only be accessed by
+/dev/tape/by-id/.
+However, in some cases, especially when accessing Amazon Webservice
+Storage Gateway VTLs (or accessing iSCSI VTLs in general?) this does not
+work, as all tape devices and the tape changer have the same ENV{ID_SERIAL}.
+The results is, that only the last device is available in
+/dev/tape/by-id/, as the former devices have been overwritten.
+
+As this behavior is hard to change without breaking consistentcy,
+this additional device in /dev/tape/by-path/ can be used to access the medium changes.
+The tape devices can also be accessed by this path.
+
+The content of the directory will now look like:
+
+  # SCSI tape device, rewind (unchanged)
+  /dev/tape/by-path/$env{ID_PATH} -> ../../st*
+
+  # SCSI tape device, no-rewind (unchanged)
+  /dev/tape/by-path/$env{ID_PATH}-nst -> ../../nst*
+
+  # SCSI tape changer device (newly added)
+  /dev/tape/by-path/$env{ID_PATH}-changer -> ../../sg*
+
+Tape devices and tape changer have different ID_PATHs.
+SCSI tape changer get the suffix "-changer"
+to make them better distinguishable from tape devices.
+
