HP-UX 11.31 make_tape_recovery make_medialif error
HI Gurus!
I have a problem running "make_tape_recovery" on my newly installed HP-UX PA server.
Server is patched to the newest release.
Ignite-UX Revision C.7.13.240.
I'm running "make_tape_recovery -i" and then i interactively select options: entire vg00, tar archive...
I've got 15 GB of free space on /var.
Tape was used previously for backup but i think Ignite-UX should overwrite it.
Backing up older HP-UX 11.11 and 11.31 with same type of tape and drive was successful

Re: HP-UX 11.31 make_tape_recovery make_medialif error
Me again...
i realized that on this system the DDS tape is not recognized:
ioscan -fnC tape
Class I H/W Path Driver S/W State H/W Type Description
=====================================================================
tape 0 0/1/1/1.3.0 stape CLAIMED DEVICE HP C7438A
/dev/rmt/0m /dev/rmt/0mn /dev/rmt/c3t3d0BEST /dev/rmt/c3t3d0BESTn
/dev/rmt/0mb /dev/rmt/0mnb /dev/rmt/c3t3d0BESTb /dev/rmt/c3t3d0BESTnb
On the older systems (where the Ignite-UX works) the output is like:
ioscan -fnC tape
Class I H/W Path Driver S/W State H/W Type Description
=====================================================================
tape 0 0/1/1/1.3.0 stape CLAIMED DEVICE HP C7438A
/dev/rmt/0m /dev/rmt/0mn /dev/rmt/c3t3d0BESTn /dev/rmt/c3t3d0DDSb
/dev/rmt/0mb /dev/rmt/c3t3d0dBEST /dev/rmt/c3t3d0BESTnb /dev/rmt/c3t3d0DDSn
/dev/rmt/0mn /dev/rmt/c3t3d0BESTb /dev/rmt/c3t3d0DDS /dev/rmt/c3t3d0DDSnb
I did not find differences in configurations, only in versions:
System that works: HP-UX 11.11, Ignite-UX Revision B.5.1.33
System that don't work: HP-UX 11.31, Ignite-UX Revision C.7.13.240
Is there any driver for HP-UX 11.31 to support DDS tapes?
Thanks in advance.
