Don't forget to chxid the device files, because else you won't be
able to open them anyway.
Anyway: I've been able to run bacula for years from a vserver
with an ultrium1 scsi streamer, up until the streamer's power
supply's magick smoke dissappeared (with a bang even). So tape
access should just work after chxid-ing them to the right context
id.
