When the Inhibit Magazine Eject code is set, the Medium Changer does NOT eject the Magazine upon either the receipt of a MOVE MEDIUM command that specifies move Import/Export Element to Medium Transport Element (eject Magazine), or after processing the last cartridge in a Magazine while in Automatic Mode. If Inhibit Magazine Eject is set when either of these situations occur, the Magazine is moved to the first available cartridge (see Table 6-40 on page 6-34 for operation of car- tridge unloading). If an ACL is attached, the Eject code is reported as changeable and defaults to a value of 10b.

For an FACL, the Eject code is not supported. If an FACL is attached, the Eject code is reported as NOT changeable on a MODE SENSE command and defaults to a value of zero. See Table 6-40 for operation of cartridge unloading.
