Unable to see DLT tape drive

H_16 — Fri, 17 Apr 2009 13:34:42 GMT

I have recently upgraded OS to 11.23 but Im now unable to see my DLT8000 drive, I can see my DVD and DDS drives.

The SCSI cable has been changed and still cant be seen in ioscan?

Any ideas?

Basically, it's not supported, I suspect.

DLT8000 drives are usually HVD SCSI, but this kind of HBAs is no longer supported with 11.23.

I might should like whats new. But I would advice you to contact HP on this as Torsten said I dont think they are compatible
