Have some problem with new tape drive. I have IDE RAID server which is loaded with redhat 7.2, planning to configure backup server and attached a sony DAT tape drive. While booting got some messages like new hardware is found and want to configure, I said yes and its did something for configuration but I don't know whether it is configured or not. When I tried with backup software I got error "not able to open the device /dev/st0" . I have doubts about IRQ ID whether IRQ ID is conflicting with any device IRQ and what is the device file for tape drive, how to identify.
Please help to configure SONY DAT tape drive…
Thanks for reading this much long male…..
Thanks & Regards,
