+Advanced options
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Since not all tape changer behave the same, there is sometimes the need
+for configuring advanced options.
+
+Currently there are the following:
+
+* `eject-before-unload` : This is needed for some changers that require a tape
+ to be ejected before unloading from the drive.
+
+You can set these options with `proxmox-tape` like this:
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+ # proxmox-tape changer update sl3 --options eject-before-unload=true
+
+
.. _tape_drive_config:
