I have an external HP SureStore DLT VS80 with a SCSI LVD 68 pin interface and an external HP SureStore DAT24 with a SCSI Centronics 50 pin Narrow SE interface. The cable for the DAT has a Centronics connector at one end and a 68 Pin Wide to Narrow terminated connector at the other. The cable for the DLT has a LVD/SE 68 pin...

I am running CentOS 4.4 and trying to bring up my tape library. When I do cat /proc/scsi/scsi, it shows only the drive and not the changer although both are shown when the Adaptec card initializes. I recall in the distant past that I had to do "something" to get the kernel to properly scan the SCSI bus for the additional LUN but I cannot for the life of me recall what that was. It

This is one of those autoloaders where the tape drive and the library share a SCSI ID, but are on different LUN's - specifically the library should be on LUN 1. Apparently since so many devices like this are broken, recent kernels don't probe beyond the first LUN, so it's not detecting the library. My /proc/scsi/scsi output: Attached devices: Host: scsi4 Channel: 01 Id: 00 Lun:

I am experimenting with a scsi2 HP SureStore DAT24 attached as an external device to an Intel P4 system. I am attempting to create a raw disk image of a dds2 tape made on a non linux system. My immediate problem is that I am trying to terminate a dd process and having no luck. dd was invoked thus: dd if=/dev/nst1 of=/tmp/disk.dds2.img...

I need a SCSI card to attach a tape library to my system. I am looking at the Adaptec 29320A-R. Can anyone confirm that this card will work with the stock CentOS 4 kernel? -- Bowie

I need to install an HP Surestore dlt on a Centos 4 machine and I am at a loss as to how to proceed. Can someone either provide or point me to an online reference on how to proceed to add and configure a SCSI adapter and tape drive. I have read, but not really understood, the man page entry for st. Does kudzu handle this?...

...he above drives> alias scsi_host_adapter <name used for install> Can somebody confirm whether I am on the right track or not and provide some advice has to how to proceed? Which is the preferred driver for this card? Do I have to make additional entries for the tape drive itself an HP surestore dlt vs80? How do I create the necessary /dev/st# and /dev/mt# entries? Is there a Linux utility program like kudzu that can probe the hardware and automate any of this? I am a digest subscriber so replies that only go to the list will reach me in about 24 hours.

(lspci-output added at the end of this mail!) Hi specialists, I''m trying to pass an HP Surestore USB-drive to a domU. I''m hiding the pci-device in the dom0, and capturing it in the domU. Although this works fine I receive the following lines in /var/log/syslog of the dom0 after a reboot ======================================================================= Aug 8 00:04:49 localho...
