Anyone have a st.conf reference for HP LTO2 drives?
 
Thanks,
Scott

Hi Samuel

I too had problems with LTO-2 drive definitions. After protracted
wrangling
between StorageTek, IBM and Sun, here's what I'm using in my
/kernel/drv/st.conf
files:

tape-config-list =
"IBM     ULTRIUM-TD1", "IBM Ultrium Gen 1 LTO-custom", "IBM-LTO1",
"IBM     ULTRIUM-TD2", "IBM Ultrium Gen 2 LTO-custom", "IBM-LTO2";

IBM-LTO1       = 1, 0x3B, 0,  0x19639, 4, 0x40, 0x40, 0x40, 0x40, 3;
IBM-LTO2       = 1, 0x3B, 0,  0x19639, 4, 0x40, 0x40, 0x42, 0x42, 3;

And if anyone is interested, here's what it all means!

1         version number (1 or 2)
0x3B      type (see /usr/include/sys/mtio.h)
0         preferred block size (0=variable)
0x19639   options (bit pattern, for details see
/usr/include/sys/scsi/targets/stdef.h)
          0x19639 contains the flags marked (*), any gaps left as an
exercise
for the student... :-)
          0x000001  *    ST_VARIABLE
          0x000002       ST_QIC
          0x000004       ST_REEL
          0x000008  *    ST_BSF
          0x000010  *    ST_BSR
          0x000020  *    ST_LONG_ERASE
          0x000040       ST_AUTODEN_OVERRIDE
          0x000080       ST_NOBUF
          0x000200  *    ST_KNOWS_EOD
          0x000400  *    ST_UNLOADABLE
          0x000800       ST_SOFT_ERROR_REPORTING
          0x001000  *    ST_LONG_TIMEOUTS
          0x008000  *    ST_NO_RECSIZE_LIMIT
          0x010000  *    ST_MODE_SEL_COMP
          0x020000       ST_NO_RESERVE_RELEASE
          0x040000       ST_READ_IGNORE_ILI
          0x080000       ST_READ_IGNORE_EOFS
          0x100000       ST_SHORT_FILEMARKS
          0x200000       ST_EJECT_TAPE_ON_CHANGER_FAILURE
          0x400000       ST_RETRY_ON_RECOVERED_DEFERRED_ERROR
4         number of compression options
0x40      compression value 1
0x40      compression value 2
0x42      compression value 3
0x42      compression value 4
3         default compression option

Cheers
Mike
