This leaves you with some options:
- switch the OS to one HP supports (they usually support SLES, RH, and 
debian)
- use another SCSI HBA
- compile the driver (version) a supported linux would use for your 
current kernel (maintenance nightmare ahead!)

This is most probably not a Bacula problem, as Bacula relies on the 
underlying OS services when it comes to device access.

If HP does not support the combination of OS and hardware there can be 
good reasons for it. (Although I'm running some unsupported 
combinations as well, without issues.) However, if you told us which 
OS and HBA you use someone here might have an idea.
