mtx is a set of low level driver programs to control features of
SCSI backup related devices such as autoloaders, tape changers,
media jukeboxes, and tape drives. It can also report much data,
including serial numbers, maximum block sizes, and TapeAlert(tm)
messages that most modern tape drives implement (to tell you the
exact reason why a backup or restore failed), as well as do raw
SCSI READ and WRITE commands to tape drives. mtx is designed to
be a low level driver in a larger scripted backup solution, such
as Amanda. mtx is not supposed to itself be a high level interface
to the SCSI devices that it controls.
