Loggin into SCSI controller
Can anyone tell me the commands to login to a SCSI controller from VMS prompt.
I have a SCSI TZ87 tape drive and is not recognized by the system. How can I check it without shutting down the system ( ie. from SRM prompt)
Regards
Venkat

Re: Loggin into SCSI controller
The solution may lie with CMOS advanced features (BIOS).
Get into the BIOS and look for lines referring to "SCSI-attached devices" and/or "other boot-devices". Enable as appropriate. Sorry for not being more specific but each BIOS seems to have its own language (probably different from the AMI-BIOS put to my computer).

Re: Loggin into SCSI controller
Please see if the link below throws any light
http://www3.sympatico.ca/n.rieck/docs/vax_vms_hsd_notes.html
Just a question, have you run the following
$MC SYSMAN
SYSMAN>IO AUTOCONFIGURE
SYSMAN> IO SCSI_PATH_VERIFY
SYSMAN>exit
Please note that the above commands are Alpha specific

Re: Loggin into SCSI controller
Was the device working and disappeared suddenly ?
Is the SCSI controller a newly added one ? which one ?
If IO autoconfig does not help,
try with ANALYZE/SYSTEM:
CLUE CONFIG if it dees a controller not recognized by standard drivers/autoconfigure.
And: a login to a simple SCSI controller is not possible, only to intelligent ones like raid controllers,HSCs,DSSI etc.

Re: Loggin into SCSI controller
better:
Power off the drive first, change the ID, and power on.
Proost.
Have one on me.

Re: Loggin into SCSI controller
Thanks to everybody who poured out with response.
The issue was solved once the SCSI cable was reseated and the system was rebooted.
To answer Joseph :
1) The drive disappeared after the system was rebooted.
2) The SCSI controller was an existing one.
Thanks & Regards
Venkat
