        Well,

If you're sure that you st.conf is correct, then maybe you can mount a =
tape
in a drive with robtest and test it with a tar or dd command ?

Maybe there a confusion in the order of your drives.

That's all I can do for you !

st.conf is correct on both solaris boxes, sgscan can see the drives as =
well.

=20
The swithes are Mcdata 32 and 64 ports, the clients are actually hooked =
into
connectrix 32 port, but for the SDLT, it goes through a crossroads 3250
bridge
=20
HBA: on the 2.8 box, Emulex LP800 4.2k
         on the 2.6 box, JNI:FCI-1063 2.5.9

Guru's,=20


I'm having trouble getting SSO backups to work on Solaris machines with =

tapes on the SAN. Here's the setup:=20


One Unix Master Server, attached to STK L700=20
Two Solaris media servers 2.8 and 2.6=20
Win2k Media server.=20

The Win2k server backups up fine he can see an SDLT drive and a 9940 on =
the=20
SAN. The 2.6 machine sees 2 SDLT drives on the SAN. The 2.8 machine =
sees a=20
9940 Driver on the SAN. When I try to run the backup it gets to a point =

where it tries to mount the tape and puts the tape in the drive, but =
after=20
that , nothing. Anyone have any ideas?=20
