Hi all,

Hi misc,
I'm setting up a new backup server, and I'm looking at using a SAS
connected tape drive. Now, last time I set up a tape station UWSCSI was
in high fashion, so it was a while ago... :-)
I've tried to research how to best connect the (not yet purchased) drive
to an OpenBSD box, but come
Can anyone confirm that these drives specifically work OK.
I assume that they will just operate as a standard st device but would like to
be sure before spending the cash.
Thanks

Thanks very much for your response. The tape drive does not show up on
the BIOS messages, but before initially writing to [EMAIL PROTECTED], I was
told by Dell that the absence of the tape drive on the messages was OK.

From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
When I started trying to resolve this, I knew that the add-in
card was a
possible solution, and I am leaning towards it more now, especially
since the Adaptec 39160 that the tech suggested is on the OpenBSD
supported hardware list.
I am not committed to that
Ugh that means they are running the drive on a RAID channel. That is a bad
idea. Go for the 39160 option.

Thanks for the comment. Well, the reasons that I am heavily

Thanks very much for your reply! I will re-examine the BIOSs with your

Marco,
With your question in mind, I more closely examined the BIOSs.
The tape drive is on channel B. I have examined the system BIOS and found that
channel B is configured as SCSI, as indicated below:
Integrated Devices -
Embedded RAID Controller..RAID Enabled
Does the BIOS show a message that there is a tape device hooked up?
There should be a MPT scsi card showing up that has a tape drive
attached to it. If not you have some sort of cabling or hardware issue.

Hi!
OpenBSD 3.8-release installation is not detecting the Dell installed
PV100T internal tape drive connected to the onboard SCSI on my 2850
PowerEdge rackmount server. The 2850 is
configured as follows:
2.8GHz/2MB Cache, Xeon, 800MHzFront Side Bus for PowerEdge 2850 285282 [
222-0123]
2.8GHz
There is no tape in your dmesg. Are you sure the server is set to RAID/SCSI in
the bios?
