Solaris 8 - IDE Tape Drive
Greetings!
I have Solaris 8 x86 up and running, but cannot get it to identify my HP Colorado 8 GB IDE tape drive. A 'dmesg' reports it found, 'devfsadm' will not create any links to /dev/rmt/.
Any ideas, or is it simply not supported?
-Dave Minor
Hello
back after a long while ... but I have the solution !
Darren, you were completely right, thanks ! I summarize if ever someone meets the same pb ...
1- normally, if the daemon "vold" is running, when inserting a CDROM in a drive, it's automatically mounted and then accessible with /cdrom/cdrom0
2- but, if "vold" is not running, it has to be launched :
/etc/init.d/volmgt start
3- if "vold" is running but you still can't access to your CDROM (it was my case !) => that means the CDROM is maybe not readable ! Actually I had a CD-RW and the drive couldn't read it. I copied the data on a normal CD-R and it worked !
thanks for help !
bye

Hi Folks,
We have the following scenario:
- SunFire v490 server
- DAT 72 tape, SCSI
- LTO4 tape, FC (via qlogic HBA)
- Solaris 9 + updated patches
We need some help regarding the FC tape configuration. *"cfgadm -al"* shows the FC tape as:
c4::500110a0008a18eb tape connected configured unknownand *"ls -l shows"* :
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 68 Jan 31 14:16 /dev/rmt/1 -> ../../devices/pci@8,600000/SUNW,qlc@1/fp@0,0/st@w500110a0008a18eb,0:Wich is the tape's WWN. But when the tape drive status is invoked via "*mt -f /dev/rmt/1 status"* , it shows
/dev/rmt/1: No such device or addressWhat are we missing here?
Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance,
SECHi,
Thanks for your responses, after installing the suggested patch in single user mode, performing reconfiguration reboot did not help.
The FC HBA is already configured and working, but qhe we try to reconfigure the drive it shows:
root@host1 # cfgadm -c configure c4::500110a0008a18eb
cfgadm: Library error: failed to create device node: 500110a0008a18eb: Invalid argumentAny help will be very appreciated,

Actually the thing is recognized just fine in the BIOS. I can see it and my DVD-RW hooked up when I boot. But when I get into WinXP; 9 out of 10 times (if that) I don't see the tape drive. And when I do; Retrospect doesn't get a response from it.
I suppose this could be a WinXP issue; but the same tape drive was recognized with WinXp SP2 on the system this new one replaced without a hitch. Could this have something to do with the Nvidia IDE drivers I installed shortly after installing WinXP?
Oh yes..almost forgot. I'm talking about K8N Neo2 board
TIAYou mean uninstall the Nvidia IDE drivers?
I can see that it's possible to uninstall just that part of the drivers. Will the system then default to the MS/Windows ones upon reboot?
TIA -
Tape drive and pci-x card with Solaris 10 on VMWare environment
I have a Sun X4170 server (x84_64) running VMWare ESXi 4.0. On it I have two VM guests- my production file server running Solaris 10 U7 and a test file server running Solaris 10 U9.
The X4170 has a PCI-X LSI Logic dual external U320 parallel scsi card. I have a tape drive + auto loader cabled to the X4170. It is a Quantum branded autoloader but I believe the tape drive itself is HP. The autoloader+tape drive share a single SCSI ID (6) but have separate LUNS.
I have two choices for making this system accessible to the OS:
- Virtualize the tape drive and loader individually.
- In VMWare, enable the scsi card as a pass through device. The SCSI card is then added as PCI device to the virtual machine (actually two devices since it is a dual scsi card.)
I had virtualized a single-drive tape drives with Vmware in the past.
However, when I tried I virtualize tape drive and loader, Solaris complained about the scsi id’s being invalid. I don’t think it likes two devices with a single scsi ID. Also, I think I need the backup software to see the REAL tape drive and autoloader (for inventory, changing tapes etc)

Any ideas? Maybe a need to update the MPT driver or is that dangerous?
ThanksActually, updating the kernel patches (and enabling hot plug service) did solve the problem. At some point during between testing the system before and after patching, the tape drive got turned off. Since the system patching was being done remotely it was not immediately obvious that the tape drive was off.

IDE/ATAPI Tape Drive: Support?
Hi Friends:
Does anyone know of a device driver/hack to allow IDE/ATAPI tape drives to work under Solaris 10? The BIOS recognizes the drive -- and I can also use the IDE/ATAPI SCSI emulation within Linux to write to the drive.
Is anything similar supported on Solaris 10?I never have used an ATAPI tape drive.
But I do know that some tape support was added to the Solaris
USB kernel modules (e.g. with the S9-x86 patch 115554-19,
S10-x86 should have the same support).
An idea would be to try on the these USB<->ATAPI bridge devices
(external enclosure) and attach the ATAPI TAPE device to such a
bridge and use the thing as an USB tape drive.
Works fine with ATAPI CD/DVD writer devices. Since I don't own
an ATAPI TAPE, I've never tried such an USB<->ATAPI TAPE
device, but it might work. -
Sys-suspend fails on Solaris 9 with tape drive present
I ran across a post by T. Kloeber (http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=5109999&messageID=9374786) on the Sun developer forum on this.
I replaced my Solaris 7 SS5 with an Ultra 2 and installed Solaris 9 fresh. The external disks and tape drive are unchanged. The SS5 used to suspend properly about 95% of the time, but now the machine refuses to suspend with the tape drive connected. Log messages are:
Mar 21 16:20:13 madera cpr: [ID 535284 kern.notice] System is being suspended

and the system is not suspended. Is there anything i am missing on Solaris 9?
I am able to modunload the st driver, then when I attempt to suspend, the driver gets reloaded, and I get the failure above.
I ran across an E10000 service manual from 2.6 days that said that tape devices were not suspendable. They must have rethought that by Solaris 7. No idea why 9 should refuse this. I have the latest recommended patches.
TIA for any information!

How to Add a New Tape Drive to Solaris 10
Hi,
I have an old DLT4000 tape drive attached to my SunFire V250. As I am starting to fill up the 40GB on that tape drive I have purchased a new SDLT320 and want to replace it with the old DLT4000.
I have set the SCSI ID on the back of the unit to the same number as the DLT4000 (3), powered off the old unit, unplugged it, then plugged in the new SDLT320 and turned it on.
I cannot seem to read the tape (mt -f /dev/rmt/0 status) - it says it is offline.
I thought I could simply swap the unit but obviously that is not the case. How do I add it properly?
Any help would be appreciated.
RobThanks, I tried that and no go.
I noticed the driver did load reload so I did a modload -p st and it re-loaded but I still cannot get the tape to read. It says that /dev/rmt/0 does not exsist.
What about if I do a reboot?
What commands can I use there?
Bear inmind I have rebooted twice, once with an init 6, the other, an init 0 and then a boot -rs.
Any other ideas? -
St.conf parameters for SDLT tape drive / Solaris 8
Hello,
I need the parameters for the SDLT tape drive from Tandberg for the st kernel driver. In the st.conf there is no entry for Tandberg SDLT.
With the st.conf, shipped with Solaris 8 10/01, my V880 crashes when accessing the SDLT with the mt command.
Does anyone here have the parameters?
Thanks in advance

department manager IT
Christ GmbH
GermanyHi Thomas,
Actually, a bug 4495684 has been filed to fix this issue. A 2.6, 7,
8 and SOlaris 9 patch should come out soon that will add this entry
in the st.conf.
I constructed this entries from the bug description. Try if it works.
It should else wait for the patch. Any way, please let me know
the results.
"QUANTUM Super DLT", "Quantum Super DLT", "SDLT-data";
SDLT-data = 1,0x38,0,0x8619,4,0x88,0x89,0x90,0x91,3;
Good Luck !!!

Solaris Can't detect Quantum SDLT 320 Tape Drive
Hi All,
I have a Quantum SDLT 320 connected to Sun Fire v490 which can't be detected in solaris but can be detected in OBP .
Can someone help about this issue.
Your prompt response will be very appreciated.Hi All,
Thanks for your help.
The problem is now solved when i proceeded as followed:
1. When i executed the command cfgadm -al
the output showed the below information about the tape drive controller:
c3 Connected unconfigured OK
I disconnected the controller and then run the devfsadm -c tapes which took about 1 hour to complete and then, now the system can detect and tape and the first backup run
successfully. -
List the tape drives installed in solaris
Hi ,
Can some one please let me know how can I display the tape drives which is installed in Solaris (below Version 8)
In solaris 8 we can use cfgadm , However below 8 other than prtconf is there any command or way to findout the devices installed . prtconf and sysdef command outputs are too difficult to digest ,
Thanks
DileepYes I can see the following things .
I would like to use a command which will list all the devices installed in a user friendly manner .

Storagetek LTO3 tape drive cannot detact in solaris 9
Hi, i have a problem regarding the installation of LTO3 tape drive to my SunFire V880.
The scenario is like this. I have 2 SunFire v880 and 1 SunFire 280R. Each of them using external lto3 tape drive. But 2 of them is working fine.Only 1 server has a problem. which is one of the v880.
Below are the patch for my Solaris 9
1. V880 - 118558-24 (tape drive detected)
2. V880 - 112233-11 (tape drive not detected)
3. 280R - 112233-11. (tape drive detected)
What makes me confused is at the tape drive documentation says that the tape drive only can be used for the patch higher than 112233-11 . But i can see that there is no problem with 280R. The scsi card and tape drive is the same model for all three servers.
I have run setevnv auto-boot? false, reset-all ,probe-scsi-all but still cannot run.
When I ls in /dev/rmt..there is no files in it.Can somebody help me..TqHello,
The scsi card and tape drive is the same model for all three servers.
I have run setevnv auto-boot? false, reset-all ,probe-scsi-all but still cannot run.
If the drive isn't displayed by probe-scsi-all, check the cable and terminators.
Even if no SCSI device is detected, the controller itself should be displayed.
Maybe the external port of the controller has failed.
If the drive is displayed advance to the next step.
When I ls in /dev/rmt..there is no files in it.
Did you boot with the reconfiguration option ? Solaris 9 supports devfsadm to rebuild the device-tree without reboot, but if you can afford the downtime, a reboot is prefered.
Without reboot: devfsadm -C -c tape -v
This is a link to an online version of the manpage http://man.cx/devfsadm(1M)
With reboot: Either touch /reconfigure; init 6 or boot -r from the ok-prompt.
A feedback is appreciated (didn't help, component failed, etc.) !

External tape drive DAT 72 problem
Hi all,
I have solaris 10 sparc running and working very well
but i have problem with external SCSI tape drive DAT 72 problem
it seems to me the tape drive is manufactured by SUN microsystems
when i ran ls -l /dev/rmt/0
it reveals the following output
bash-3.00# mt -f /dev/rmt/0 status
/dev/rmt/0: No such file or directorywhen i ran ls -l
it reveals the following output
ls -l /dev/rmt/0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 43 Sep 20 2006 /dev/rmt/0 -> ../../devices/pci@8,600000/scsi@1,1/st@3,0:it seems to me everything is okay
SCSI cable is connected properly to Tape device and to server as well
the tape has SCSI termination dongle as well and connected properly to Tape device as well
any ideas would be a great assist
Thanks in advance
Edit/Delete Messagefirst of all thanks for your reply
it's not newly installed and i'm not sure if it was working or not because i'm successor for an administrator who left job to new
by the way i rebooted to OBP multiple in hope that Solaris search for new peripherals and configure the one's it recognises.
times with no luck
anyways i ran prtconf bash-3.00# prtconf

SCSI Emulation for IDE Tape Devices
Linux has a nifty driver called ide-scsi.o, an SCSI emulation for IDE devices, that allows SCSI commands to sent to IDE devices. These IDE devices (CDROM, tape drives, etc...) appear as SCSI devices.
Does Solaris have something similiar?
Thanks,

It's in rc.conf by adding "ide-scsi"???
I'm using Kernel 2.6.4 (IDE version), KDE 3.2.1 and K3b 0.11.6.
Note: I've tried to upgrade k3b from 0.11.6 to 0.11.7 with "pacman -Su k3b" but say to me that already in last version - 0.11.6.
with kernel 2.6 you don't need anymore scsi emulation for cd burning, i do that, on the bootloader ( lilo is what i use) i add at the append line this --> hdc=ide-cd , and that's all, maybe even that is not needed, not sure. If you want to test if that works open a shell and type --> cdrecord --dev=ATAPI --scanbus
It should show your burner.
For k3b you maybe need to run the setup program first, and make sure your cdrdao is uptodate. -
Error after installing tape drive
Hi,
I am a newbie to Solaris, I have a SunFire V120 box, i was trying to install a tape drive(HP SureStore DAT24), i did the install in this manner.

Rajendra Rait.I have exactly the same problem after running an fsck to clear corrupt files.
Is there a problem with mirrored disks and using boot -ar to rebuild path_to_inst?
The basic problem is that the root filesystem is coming up as read only
i.e.
The /etc/path_to_inst on your system does not exist or is empty.
Do you want to rebuild this file [n]? y
