NBU- Business server v4.5 on Solaris 2.8.
I am trying to use the tape drives for non-NBU activity, as described in
Veritas document #236443.
( http://seer.support.veritas.com/docs/236443.htm
<http://seer.support.veritas.com/docs/236443.htm> )
I am unable to use the tape or drive. I get the following results:
=================
/usr/openv/volmgr/bin$ tpreq -m BSU001 -d dlt -p test-scratchpool -f
/tmp/mytape
/usr/openv/volmgr/bin$ mt -f /tmp/mytape rewind
/usr/openv/volmgr/bin$ mt -f /tmp/mytape erase
/tmp/mytape: write protected or reserved. < ======== !!!!!
/usr/openv/volmgr/bin$ mt -f /tmp/mytape status
Quantum DLT7000 tape drive:
sense key(0x0)= No Additional Sense residual= 0 retries= 0
file no= 0 block no= 0
/usr/openv/volmgr/bin$
/usr/openv/volmgr/bin$
===================
Any ideas as to what causes this?
