Good morning all, The sgen driver works well on Solaris 8. That fixed my need to roll my own.
The only change I needed to recognize the HP C7200-8000 changer was to modify the sgen.conf with the following lines: ======================================================== device-type-config-list="library"; inquiry-config-list= "HP", "C7200-8000"; ======================================================== and of course uncomment the: name="sgen" class="scsi" target=0 lun=0; . . . lines. mtx works very well with the changer and the DLT8000 drives. Thanks to Jon LaBadie, Thomas Hepper and Craig Dewick. > On Tue, 23 Apr 2002, Thomas Hepper wrote: > > > Hi, > > On Tue, Apr 23, 2002 at 03:35:34PM +0200, Ryszard Kluza wrote: > > > Hello > > > > > > I have Sun E250 with Solaris 7 > > > > > > Tape library Adic FastStore22 > > > > > > And amanda > > > > > > How I have to configure amanda and solaris to work together, > > > > > > What kind of driver I need to instal on Solaris > > > > I'm not sure if solaris have already the sgen driver.
