Symptoms
Customer looking for drivers for T10000A drives in a SL8500 /Linux Red Hat, Data Protector.
Can see the T10000 tape drives but they are showing up as two separate standalone drives scsi address /dev/nst1 & /dev/nst0.
Changes
Added drives to SL8500 library.
Cause
HP Data Protector Application
Data Protector is at 5.1
Lenux is at 4.11
Solution
-There are no Linux Drivers.
-OS should configure drives with the native drivers.
-The OS and Data Protector are seeing the drives just fine.
-Data Protector doesn't have the drives configured properly under the library....they're showing up as standalone.
-Need to configure things correctly in Data Protector and define it in the acs/acsls mapping.
You need to do a manual configuration of the drives via Data Protector. The drives will not auto config properly as there is no control path due to being attached to a library. Assuming the library is already configured, all you need to do is add the drives.
The final fix was:
A scsitab file which has a definition and configuration information for the T10KA drive. This was provided by HP Engineering. |
