Hi,
I am trying to passthrough a tape drive to an privileged container. My configuration looks as follows:
Unfortunately, the tape drive seems to be only partly accessible. I can write to new tapes, but I cannot locate the end of write position on pre-written tapes.
The output of tapeinfo also looks strage:
tapeinfo on the host works fine.
Any ideas how to solve this? Thanks!

Unfortunately, the tape drive seems to be only partly accessible. I can write to new tapes, but I cannot locate the end of write position on pre-written tapes.
The output of tapeinfo also looks strage:

tapeinfo on the host works fine.
Any ideas how to solve this? Thanks!
