Trying to connect a HP Surestore Dat 40 C5687A to a HP K460
Here is the results of an ioscan -fH 10/4
ext_bus 6 10/4/12 scsi1 CLAIMED INTERFACE HP 28655A - SE SCSI ID=7
target 8 10/4/12.1 target CLAIMED DEVICE
tape 1 10/4/12.1.0 tape2 CLAIMED DEVICE HP C5683A
The device is there and claimed. When I try to do an fbackup or tar the computer comes back with an I/O error immediatly without ever getting to the tape drive.
The check patches comes back with one 'warning' which says 'PHKL_21262 is missing patch fileset CORE-KRN' and 'PHKL_21262 is missing patch fileset KERN2-RUN'
We were told that patch PHKL_21262 was for 64bit computers. We are currently running HPUX 11.0 in 32bit mode.
We have downloaded the patch and its dependencies and installed it, but it did not correct the problem.
We had our hardware support come it and he fully tested the tape drive and everthing worked perfectly.
The cable is 2M or about 80" in length.
We are using a 50 to 64 pin cable. Our 28655-60001 PB-SE-SCSI Adapter has a 50 pin connector and our C5687A has a 64 pin connector. Also we are running the correct terminator it is 'SE' (at least that is what the HW person said)
The drive is the only device on the scsi chain.
I cannot do an tar as I get an I/O error immediatly so it looks like a software problem.
Our hardware engineer used mstm to test the tape drive and was able to read/write and verify everything written to the tape drive. We also tried a different tape drive that the CE brought with him as well as a new SCSI card and cable - Same results.
What do I need to do to get the DDS4 working on my K-460?

Did you try to attach a different DAT drive and see whether it works?
P.S. Cable is 50 to 68 pin, C5687A have a 68 pin connector (LVD).
HTH,
Vince

ext_bus 6 10/4/12 scsi1
...
tape 1 10/4/12.1.0 tape2
Generally speaking - drivers for such older hardware are not being re-developed, imporved, and so forth.
The tape driver presumably needs to be stape, which of course requires a different scsi driver...
Being an NT guy, and an Omniback Guy, I can't tell you anything with certainty on this one, but it seems likely that you have been told correctly.
Can you get a newer scsi card into your K box? (ie not on the PB buss?)

10/4/16 ext_bus HP 28655A - SE SCSI ID=7
10/4/16.2 target
10/4/16.2.0 tape HP C5683A
10/4/16.4 target
10/4/16.4.0 tape HP C5683A
It is using the tape2 driver and all the patches are applied.
I'm waiting callback from my CE that is looking into this.
