Remember to use lin_tape (IBM Atape) if the drives are IBM branded, and 
the Tivoli device driver if they are HPs

Re: [ADSM-L] SV:Linux TSM Server & discovering scsi tape drives






The drives are lto5.  We?re checking into drivers right now.  We thought 
we had the correct ones installed, but that?s where we?re starting to 
troubleshoot the issue.

Thanks!

It would help if you supplied us with what kind of drives you are using. 
The drives should always be visible in the /proc/scsi/scsi file if they 
are physically visible to the machine. If they arent configured in linux, 
there could be a number of reasons, the most common is a lack of drivers.

Best Regards

Linux TSM Server & discovering scsi tape drives

________________________________


Hi Everyone,



We're in the process of trying to set up a new TSM 6.2.3.0 Linux server 
and we are trying to configure the tape drives to the OS.  Would anyone 
happen to know what needs to be done?  We have already zoned the tape 
drives to hba's on the linux server, but we still do not see the drives. 
(Even after reboot.)



Any suggestions?



Just let me know.  Thanks!
