Hi,

Does anyone use LTO (seagate) with SGI?  What about over fibre with
STK/Crossroads briges, qlogic card?

I am having some problems ;)
1st only one drive per bridge shows up, if there is more than one, the
scsi/hwpath is created but the corresponding /dev/rmt/tpsXXYYZZ is not...  Does
not show up on hinv -vmm either..  (sounds like a MAKEDEV bug).

2nd I can do a mt -f /dev/rmt/tps** status, but unload etc. times out:  As well
as the Sense information...  I note the ql (qlogic probibly) rather than the tps
in there too...  Needless to say my robotics work mighty fine.

Any one running into the same problems?  Also which special file do you all use
for LTO/netbackup?  /rmt/tps*****nrvc,? nrcsc etc??

Any help would be appriciated.

Regards,

Yucel
