Has anyone been able to configure the HP Storage Works 1/8 Tape Autoloader
for use with amanda as a tape library. I'm able to access data from
individual tapes by manually loading them and accessing them as
/dev/rmt/0, but I'm not sure if there is a device id that I can use to
access the actual tape library portion.
I'm running Solaris 9, amanda-2.4.4p3. amtapetype gives me the following
data on the tape.
define tapetype HP-Ultrium-LTO2 {
comment "just produced by tapetype prog (hardware compression off)"
length 206776 mbytes
filemark 577 kbytes
speed 2044 kps
}
mtx -f /dev/rmt/0 inquiry
gives me the following
Product Type: Tape Drive
Vendor ID: 'HP '
Product ID: 'Ultrium 2-SCSI '
Revision: 'F78V'
Attached Changer: No
This box also has a DLT4000, and a DDS3 connected to it which are on the
following SCSI id's

On the tape library I've configured the SCSI Id's to be 2 and 5, because
all of the others are taking. So I have
id 0 disk 1
id 1 disk 2
id 2 library
id 3 dlt4000
id 4 dds3
id 5 lto2
id 6 cdrom
id 7 hostadaptor
maybe I should just take one of the tape drives off and make it a bit
simpler, but I'm currently backing systems up to the dlt4000 and dds3
until I can get the library usable (so i'd rather leave production in
production).
/dev/rmt/0 corresponds to -> ../../devices/[EMAIL PROTECTED],0/QLGC,[EMAIL
PROTECTED],10000/[EMAIL PROTECTED],0:
which shows up as
Jun 13 07:50:30 <HP Ultrium LTO 2>
Jun 13 07:50:30 scsi: [ID 193665 kern.info] st5 at isp0: target 5 lun 0
Jun 13 07:50:30 genunix: [ID 936769 kern.info] st5 is /[EMAIL
PROTECTED],0/QLGC,[EMAIL PROTECTED],10000/[EMAIL PROTECTED],0
I've reboot -- -ras and rebuilt /etc/path_to_inst, but I don't appear to
have any device that references scsi id 2 which is the library itself.
Perhaps that is my only problem.
These are the devices that I can find that reference target 2

I have no idea what the mbn,hbn,lbn,cbn,mb,hb,lb,cb information means.
Anyone have any suggestions. Thanks for the help.
