The mrd_load(3mrd) function is a specialized interface to the SCSI Move Medium command (or DSA equivalent). For the robot specified by robot_name, the routine will attempt to move the cartridge in the specified slot to the specified drive. Element addresses are zero based. On subsystems that support inverting a cartridge during a move, the cartridge_side argument can be used to indicate that the cartridge should be inverted. The robot will be opened and the arguments to the function will be verified to make sure they are safe and appropriate. The slot and drive address will be verified they are within the valid of those elements on the robot. The volume_tag argument can be used to perform cartridge volume tag verification before the move. If the cartridge volume tag at the port doesn't match that specified by this argument, then mrd_ load(3mrd) will fail with the status MRD_STATUS_CART_INVALID. If volume_tag argument is a NULL pointer, an empty string or used on a robot without vision support this argument is silently ignored and the volume tag check will not be made.
