Another question (first one was X Install)... I just installed a
SCSI tape in this machine (running RH6.2). The system's SCSI card sees
it, all is well - uh, no.
[root@c41:~]# mt -f /dev/st0 status
SCSI 2 tape drive:
File number=-1, block number=-1, partition=0.
Tape block size 0 bytes. Density code 0x0 (default).
Soft error count since last status=0
General status bits on (10000):
IM_REP_EN
[root@c41:~]# mt -f /dev/st0 retension
/dev/st0: Input/output error
[root@c41:~]# mt -f /dev/st0 tell
/dev/st0: Input/output error
Okay. What am I missing?
dmesg reports the following information:
aha152x: BIOS test: passed, auto configuration: ok, detected 1
controller(s)
aha152x0: vital data: PORTBASE=0x340, IRQ=11, SCSI ID=7,
reconnect=enabled, parity=enabled, synchronous=disabled, delay=100,
extended translation=disabled
aha152x: trying software interrupt, ok.
scsi0: Adaptec 152x SCSI driver; $Revision: 1.7 $
scsi: 1 host.
Vendor: ARCHIVE Model: Python 04687-XXX Rev: 6580
Type: Sequential-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 02
st: bufsize 32768, wrt 30720, max buffers 5, s/g segs 16.
Detected scsi tape st0 at scsi0, channel 0, id 1, lun 0
Basically, it's a Seagate (labeled) 4Gb (before compression) DAT
tape drive.
