This is a fairly common task. However, I'm often asked how to rewind and then eject a 4mm tape. It's easy--Of course, it's always easy once you know.
To rewind a tape (default)
#mt /dev/rmt/0 rewind
To rewind and eject a tape
#mt /dev/rmt/0 offline
For the second tape drive
#mt -f /dev/rmt/1 rewind
#mt -f /dev/rmt/1 offline
