Subject: [Veritas-bu] LTO2 stuck tape
Anyone had any issues?
back when I was using DLT7000 drives, we had the Dude from Quantum in =
every couple of weeks to extract a stuck tape, or reset a "swallowed =
leader".
I've been using these LTO2 drives since July for testing, and since =
November in production, and for the first time, a drive went down and =
when I "upped" the drive in the GUI, it went back down.....there's a =
tape in the drive....can't reset the drive, powercycling the drive does =
nothing...the drive is not responding.....(SAN attached to two different =
servers....same message on both)
bash-2.03# mt -f /dev/rmt/0cbn status
/dev/rmt/0cbn: no tape loaded or drive offline
bash-2.03# mt -f /dev/rmt/1cbn status
/dev/rmt/1cbn: no tape loaded or drive offline

/dev/rmt/1cbn /dev/rmt/3cbn /dev/rmt/5cbn

Any trick for freeing the tape other than calling STK?
Paul
