We are having problems installing an Exabyte EXB-210 library with two
Mammoth tape drives and ADSM 3.1 for AIX, running on an RS6K with
AIX4.2.1.
We follow the instructions, everything seems to be available, but when I
issue any commands to the library I get I/O errors. When both tape
drives are defined the bottom drive seems okay - the tape is inserted,
the green lights appear, the tape is then ejected when finished with and
collected by the robot. The top tape drive doesn't - all of the lights
come on, the tape is ejected after a few seconds and then the thing just
stops.
I deleted the top drive's definition. Then the problem moved to the
second drive.
Exabyte didn't seem to know about ADSM, or IBM come to that, is there a
staff shortage over there?
Please help!!!
Thanks,
Paul Smith.
