If the drive is SCSI reserved by another host, how can EMS probing a drive cause it to rewind? Now maybe if EMS on the server that's using the device probes the device on the server as it's using it, that could cause problems.

(But maybe that's less broken under 11iv3? I'm not sure, I haven't tried recently.) -- gabriel rosenkoetter Radian Group Inc, Unix/Linux/VMware Sysadmin / Backup & Recovery [EMAIL PROTECTED], 215 231 1556 ________________________________ From: Martin Ruslan [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, September 23, 2008 10:49 PM To: BeDour, Wayne Cc: veritas-bu@mailman.eng.auburn.edu Subject: Re: [Veritas-bu] SSO between HP-UX and Windows No problem at all.. just using the wizard, it's the recommended way according to the manual guide.

We would like to configure one Windows SAN media server, use SSO to share two tape drives with our HP Master on the 20/700. We are not currently using SSO and my only exposure so far is the manual. Anyone like to share suggestions or what to look out for in setting this up? Thanks in advance....
