Hi,

We have tried on the new set of DX30 using IBM HBA 6329 card failed on AIX
5.2 server. Some error as below. I believe it could be nothing to do with
NetWorker bcos did try to tar to virtual tape drive failed as well.

I would like to know what your guys out there successful stories, what HBA
card using ? and which platform ?

Thanks

I will be playing with a DX30 in near future (got one downstairs).

Will probably be on NW7.1.1 - on windows / perhaps Linux though.

If you want I can look into a few things and keep you up to date. What would
you like me to try out ?

Regards,
Riaan

Greeting,

Oh yes, now the ATL come back and saying their DX30 doesn't support fcp2 and
we are in the process of getting another HBA for AIX machine. I think this
setup is the first in south-east Asia.

Hi folks,

Anybody playing with DX30 with NW and would like to share experieces :)
I am using NW 7.0 with DX30 backup (simulated as 2 x DLT7000 drives) via FC.
The backup server is AIX 5 and #inquire command can detect the DX30 (P1000)
and two drives. AIX server HBA is Emulex and DX30 HBA is Qlogic via Cisco
MDS 9216 switch. All drivers are up to date. Problem come in when we trigger
a backup then error message : jukebox dx30 failed : I/O error or Invalid
arguement. After that we realized the #inquire couldn't see the DX30
jukebox.

Initialy we thought it could be version problem, but trying NW 6.1.4 and NW
7.1.1 to no avail, even worst, both doesn't able to detect the virtual tape
library.

Any help offers will be pretty much appreciated.
Cheers....
Robert
