Using Tape Device on SAN

[Bernard Peultier]

When we open the first time a tape device the driver (sa) set the scsi
reserve on the device. The only possibility to release the reserve is to
offline the cartridge.

Some others Operating system like Sun, set the scsi reserve and when we
close the device the driver release this scsi reserve.

I have made the modification on my FreeBSD5.3 sa driver.

Is it possible to have a status of this modification (include on the sources
.....)

On attach the patch file and a readme for all costumers who buy Time
Navigator Storage Node on FreeBSD.
