Re: /dev/rmt/0mn: No such device or address
Now you put a new media into the drive and try to access it.

Re: /dev/rmt/0mn: No such device or address
You get this kind of message when no tape is in the tape drive.
1) Be sure that a tape is push in, or eject it and re-introduce it.
2) Try with another tape.
3) You can also have and HW detection defect.

Your drive is a DDS3, what tapes are you using?
Hope this helps!
