SolutionWhen the system booted up, did you see the tape drive listed when the Array controller BIOS went through post?
Also, take a look at both '/proc/scsi/scsi' and '/var/log/dmesg' to see if there's any mention of a tape there.
What kernel are you running on the AS2.1 kernel now? The latest eratta, or the one that came with the distribution?

Re: Hp Dl380 G4 Smartarray 6i, Dat72
have you kept the tape drive powered on when you rebooted the system. (first have you rebooted the system)
also check dmesg output and check is there any entry for st0 or nst0

Re: Hp Dl380 G4 Smartarray 6i, Dat72
are you having a problem with the 6i controller? If so, then you may want to make sure the driver has support.. from what I can remember the cciss.o kernel module in AS 2.1 does not have support for it. You can verify this by doing
user@host $ strings /lib/modules/2.6.10-1.770_FC3/kernel/drivers/block/cciss.ko | grep 6i
If you see "Smart Array 6i" then it has support, otherwise you are out of luck and will have to install a driver for it (or update the kernel to a version that does support the 6i controller)
If the 6i controller is not the case, then I have nothing more to offer. :)

The kernel version is 2.4.9-e.3

Re: Hp Dl380 G4 Smartarray 6i, Dat72
what the person gave was just an example. you should modify it to suite your need.
to suite your need, try this method:
strings /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/block/cciss.o |less
it will present you with char messages found in that file, in that look for 'Smart Array 6i' if found then it means your system supports that controller otherwise you may have to upgrade your kernel which supports it.
which update of RH 2.1 you are running?

Re: Hp Dl380 G4 Smartarray 6i, Dat72
it looks like your kernel supports the 6i driver. so you should not be having any problem in accessing it.
but strange that you are saying dmesg output does not show up any st0 information.
try running kudzu and see whether it can find the hardware.
