SCSI Question
2007-12-25 6:39:00
I have a L20 JukeBox attached to v240 running Solaris 8.
probe-scsi-all returns:
{1} ok probe-scsi-all
/pci at 1c,600000/scsi at 2,1
Target 5
Unit 0 Removable Device type 8 STK L20 0215
Target d
Unit 0 Removable Tape IBM ULTRIUM-TD2 4770
JB is ok on target
5, but I don't understand target d for the tape drive ( which is inside the
JB). On the LCD pannel of L20 it says scsi id 13 is assigned to the tape drive
( not letting me to change it). There were no entries in /dev/rmt
So, I made
changes to the st.conf file
# IBM LTO-2 (Ultrium-TD2) Support
"IBM
ULTRIUM-TD2", "IBM Ultrium-2", "CLASS_LTO2",
"IBM ULT3580-TD2", "IBM 3580
Ultrium-2", "CLASS_LTO2";
and enabled wide tape drives for scsi-ids >5
#
In case there are wide tape drives, one can use these targets
#
name="st"
class="scsi"
target=8 lun=0;
name="st" class="scsi"
target=9
lun=0;
name="st" class="scsi"
target=10 lun=0;
name="st"
class="scsi"
target=11 lun=0;
name="st" class="scsi"
target=12 lun=0;
name="st" class="scsi"
target=13 lun=0;
name="st"
class="scsi"
target=14 lun=0;
name="st" class="scsi"
target=15 lun=0;
Ran re-configure reboot, entries created in /dev/rmt.
bash-2.03# ls -l /dev/rmt/*

.......
But I can't talk to
the tape drive. I am getting HW errors when I run jbverify. What am I doing
wrong?. Your help is much appriciated.
thanks
