Surestore DLT 80 / 29160N
Has anyone had success in connecting an external HP Surestore DLT 80 to the internal 68 pin connector on the adaptec 29160N scsi/pci adapter?
I seem to be having a bit of trouble.
dlt 80: id 5
29160N: id 7 (default settings, including auto termination)
cable: 68pin Ultra2 scsi cable with terminator
I normally have a couple of internal scsi 50pin devices, but i disconnected them to aid in troubleshoot.
With this config, I get timeouts on id5. I'm a scsi novice, so have little idea about what could be the problem/solution.
Is it a 68-wide vs 68-ultra 2 problem?
(I'm running Redhat Linux 7.2 if that could be an issue)
Thanks for any info,
Leon

N means Narrow. If your DLT8000 drive is really LVD-wide you should use 29160lp, see http://www.hp.com/cposupport/information_storage/support_doc/lpg50063.html

Re: Surestore DLT 80 / 29160N
I looked through the adaptec site for specs on the N and LP versions.
N:
Ext:One 50-pin for Ultra SCSI
Int:One 68-pin for LVD SCSI + One 50-pin for Ultra SCSI
LP: [recommended HBA]
Ext:One 68-pin VHDCI for LVD SCSI devices
Int:One 68-pin for LVD SCSI
But if the 80i and 80e have the same card suggested (LP), then the 80i must be working with the internal 68-pin -- same as the N internal connector.
Is this right or am I confused?
A couple of techs at uni suggest that they _should_ be compatible, but we'll investigate more tomorrow.
Thanks again,
Leon

Re: Surestore DLT 80 / 29160N
"Ultra160 SCSI performance for internal hard drives and external legacy devices" and "to attach external narrow SCSI devices".
I remember someone has already had these issues with 29160N, and remember they were solved with wide 29160(lp). But not sure if that unit was internal or external...

Re: Surestore DLT 80 / 29160N
Make certain that the internal terminator is LVD. It may be a SE terminator and some SE terminators do not work properly with LVD controllers.
Put the terminator at the end of the chain away from the hba.
