MSL6000

[Amirr]

Hi,

I have MSL5000 which I use with Veritas netbackup software on HPUX 11.0 OS
I just got an MSL6000 and I connected it as well.
Both are connected to an HP fiber switch.
Both of them look the same in ioscan output but I can only backup my system with the MSL5000.
In /dev/rac I have onlt 1 device which is the MSL5000 robot.
In /dev/sctl I have both drive .
Please see the attched file for /dev outputs and ioscan.
Cheers
Amir

From the following error it seems that the driver is not loaded. You might need to install the driver or reconfigure the drive. Please the documentation the web site.



unknown -1 0/12/0/0.1.0.255.0.0.0 UNCLAIMED UNKNOWN COMPAQ MSL5000 Series

Thanks for the replay,

The strange thing is that both liberary's are uncliamed in ioscan,but MSL5000 is working,MSL6000 is not working.
Which document should I look at?

Hi,

You need to install schgr (SCSI Medium Changer Device Driver) driver in the kernel in order these devices to be recognized and become CLAIMED. This is what I've got from ioscan:

autoch 0 0/3/2/0.1.14.255.0.0.2 schgr CLAIMED DEVICE HP MSL6000 Series
/dev/rac/c4t0d2

Regards.

Hi,

Start Sam-->Kernel Configuration-->Drivers-->
locate schgr, you will see "Out Out" under current and Pending state. Press space to select the line,Select "Add Driver to the kernel" under "Actions". You will see the pending state change to "In". Select "Process new kernel.." under actions and move it into place and reboot the server.
