Hello,

2013/9/5 <deepak.pal AT wipro DOT com>

And … will you please tell me what should be the output of lsscsi –g command. And how you come to conclude that proper device driver is not installed.

I.E.

# lsscsi -g

[2:0:0:0] mediumx STK L700 0104 /dev/sch0 /dev/sg8

[2:0:1:0] tape IBM ULT3580-TD5 0104 /dev/st0 /dev/sg0

[2:0:2:0] tape IBM ULT3580-TD5 0104 /dev/st1 /dev/sg1

[2:0:3:0] tape IBM ULT3580-TD4 0104 /dev/st2 /dev/sg2

[2:0:4:0] tape IBM ULT3580-TD4 0104 /dev/st3 /dev/sg3

[2:0:8:0] mediumx STK L80 0104 /dev/sch1 /dev/sg9

[2:0:9:0] tape STK T10000B 0104 /dev/st4 /dev/sg4

[2:0:10:0] tape STK T10000B 0104 /dev/st5 /dev/sg5

[2:0:11:0] tape STK T10000B 0104 /dev/st6 /dev/sg6

[2:0:12:0] tape STK T10000B 0104 /dev/st7 /dev/sg7

as you can see there are /dev/st* devices available.

If you want to use tape drive then you need to access /dev/st* device at "tape" kind of device. If you want to use autochanger at "mediumx" kind of device then you need to use /dev/sg* device.

best regards
