Hi Pro's

I have got some very old backup hardware on my neck that I need to configure to restore some very old data in Networker 7.6.3.

I am not familiar with networker but have tried to configure a SCSI connected Qualstar library to a storage node. The library has two FC connected IBM Ultrium-TD3 drives.
I'm stuck and don’t understand what drive path I shall use when configuring my library on one of my storage nodes. I have tried different variations but none of them seems to be correct.
The HPAnyware software I have on the Win2003 server tells me that the OS device name is: "\\.\Scsi2:0:5 and \\.\Scsi2:0:4"

Can anyone assist? See my jbconfig output below:

C:\>jbconfig -s bcksrv001

On a storage node, the hostname is a prefix to the jukebox name.
Enter the hostname to use as a prefix? [stnode001]
Using 'stnode001' as the hostname prefix

Jbconfig is running on host stnode001 (Windows Server 2003 5.2),
and is using bcksrv001 as the NetWorker server.

1) Configure an AlphaStor Library.
2) Configure an Autodetected SCSI Jukebox.
3) Configure an Autodetected NDMP SCSI Jukebox.
4) Configure an SJI Jukebox.
5) Exit.

which activity do you want to perform? [1] 2
14484:jbconfig: Scanning SCSI buses; this may take a while ...
Incorrect function.

Installing 'Qualstar' jukebox - [email protected].

What name do you want to assign to this jukebox device? qualstar
using 'rd=stnode001:qualstar' as jukebox device name

15814:jbconfig: Attempting to detect serial numbers on the jukebox and drives ...
15815:jbconfig: Will try to use SCSI information returned by jukebox to configure drives.

Turn NetWorker auto-cleaning on (yes / no) [yes]? no
The drives in this jukebox cannot be auto-configured with the available
information. You will need to provide the path for the drives.
Is (any path of) any drive intended for NDMP use? (yes / no) [no]
Is any drive going to have more than one path defined? (yes / no) [no]

Please enter the device path information in one of the following formats:

\\.\Tape0 --for local path or
host:device-path --for remote node or NDMP device(s) or
host:drive-letter:directory path --for Windows disk file

Drive 1, element 63000local bus, target, lun value = 2.5.0,

After the jbconfig I have tried to do an inventory of the first two slots in the library but this fails with the following command:

C:\>nsrjb -s bcksrv001 -I -S 1-2
1: rd=stnode001:qualstar [enabled]
There is only one enabled and configured jukebox: rd=stnode001:qualstar

I have tried to use these:

\\.\2.5.0
\\.\2.4.0
\\.\Scsi2.0.5
\\.\Scsi2.0.4
\\.\Scsi2.5.0
\\.\Scsi2.4.0

What drive path shall I use? And what might be wrong above?

Solved this by installing the IBM Ultrium drivers. The native Windows drivers did not work.
