Hi Stan,

echo "scsi add-single-device 2 0 2 1" > /proc/scsi/scsi

where the numbers mean controller 2, target 0, bus 2, lun 1

Hope this helps,

Nick

I am setting up a new Red Hat Linux ES 4 server with a Qualstar tape library. For testing, I just installed NetWorker 7.2.1 server, but it will be a storage node when it goes into production. Anyway, the library is connected to a Qlogic SANbox Express 1400 which has four fibre channel cables running to a Dell 2950 with three Qlogic HBA cards in it (although I am only using two of them now). After much puttering around, I can get "inquire -l" to see the four LTO-3 tape drives in this new library, but I am at a loss as to how to make the robot's information appear in the "inquire -l" output. When I try to use jbconfig, it can't find the tape library.

I am sure I am missing some step, but I don't know what that step is. Any suggestions will be appreciated. Here's what I have from the "inquire -l" command:

$ /usr/sbin/inquire -l

-l flag found: searching all LUNs, which may take over 10 minutes per adapter

        for some fibre channel adapters.  Please be patient.
