Hi there, |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
I'm trying to setup a backup system using an HP SureStore 40x6, but |
| 4 |
this is the first time I'm using tapes under Linux and I'm a bit lost. |
| 5 |
|
| 6 |
It seems I cannot access the tapes, as I get the following: |
| 7 |
cognos ~ # mt -f /dev/nst0 rewind |
| 8 |
/dev/nst0: No such device or address |
| 9 |
cognos ~ # mt -f /dev/st0 rewind |
| 10 |
/dev/st0: No such device or address |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
cognos ~ # ls -l /dev/nst0 |
| 13 |
crw-rw---- 1 root tape 9, 128 mar 10 18:47 /dev/nst0 |
| 14 |
cognos ~ # ls -l /dev/st0 |
| 15 |
crw-rw---- 1 root tape 9, 0 mar 10 18:47 /dev/st0 |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
It seems my system has not detected the tape autochanger, as I only |
| 18 |
get the SCSI disk in the list of SCSI devices: |
| 19 |
cognos ~ # cat /proc/scsi/scsi |
| 20 |
Attached devices: |
| 21 |
Host: scsi0 Channel: 00 Id: 00 Lun: 00 |
| 22 |
Vendor: COMPAQ Model: BD07296B44 Rev: HPB6 |
| 23 |
Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 03 |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
I have two SCSI adapters: |

cognos ~ # lspci |

I think the tape autochanger is connected to the second one (LSI Logic |
| 51 |
/ Symbios Logic 53c1030), so I have checked my kernel config searching |
| 52 |
for drivers. Everything I can think of seems to be compiled in the |
| 53 |
kernel, or as modules I have tried to modprobe, but with no positive |
| 54 |
results... any ideas? |
| 55 |
|
| 56 |
Thanks in advance, best regards |
