HP-UX 11.11 cannot see the Tape Library

PavanTulasi5 — Thu, 15 Mar 2018 11:34:10 GMT

Hello,

we have replaced the san switches last week, since then our media server (HP-UX 11.11) is unable to see the tape Library. when i do ioscan -fnCtape i can see all the devices are in CLAIMED state. but i am still unable to communicate to it. i can provide more details if need be. any suggestions please?

regards,

Pav

Could you provide an "ioscan -fn", please?

After running ioscan, have a look into

/var/adm/syslog/syslog.log

if you can find a hint about running "fcmsutil".

There is a changer device next to the Ultrium-3 drive.

autoch 1 8/12/1/0.56.6.255.0.0.0 schgr CLAIMED DEVICE STK SL500

Did you reboot the server after the change?

Hi Torsten,

No, one of my colleague ran insf -e but we have not rebooted it yet. do i have to run scsimgr with replace wwn or something?

not quite sure though.

Consider to rmsf and insf the device file

After running an ioscan, have a look into the syslog for something related.
