I have AlphaServer DS20, There was already a tape drive(Compaq TLZ10) installed on it, which became faulty. Now I replaced the tape drive with HP DAT72. The SCSI connector on new tape drive is 68-pin(SCSI3), and the cable through which we connect the tape drive is of 50-pin(SCSI1). For this, I am using the SCSI Converter for it. Now the issue is when I reboot the server it gives me error like
SCSI error for target 1 sist0 = 0x41
cam-logger: SCSI event packet
cam_logger = bus0
itpse SCSI HBA
HTH intr. on bus 0
SBCL = 0xa3
.............
I do the hwmgr -show scsi, it only shows the tape but not the path, as it shows the same when there is no tape drive attach to the server. But when there is no tape drive attached to the server it wont give the above error (SCSI error for target ...)
Can anyone help?
Thanks
Solved! Go to Solution.

With which SCSI adapter(s), connected to
what, how? SCSI ID of everything?

Why not use a 68-pin cable (with a 68-pin
terminator)? What else is on that cable?
>>>show device
>>>show config
(With the old tape drive? With the new one?)

As usual, showing actual commands with their
actual output can be more helpful than vague
descriptions or interpretations.

Re: HP DAT72 on AlphaServer DS20
As suggested previously, knowing exactly how the DAT drive is connected will help.
Also bear in mind that you'll need to be running at least Patch Kit 5.
Also, the various option details available here:
http://h18002.www1.hp.com/alphaserver/options/asds20/asds20_15_81_options.html#OptListHead
show that you need to be connecting the drive to a 3X-KZPCA-AA or 3X-KZPEA-DB controller.
Cheers,
Rob

Solution50-pins may indicate the old connection was "standard scsi" and the 68-pin may be LVD-scsi (low voltage).
if so the old controller is not optimal/ compatible with the new drive.
beter use 68pin-68pin cable as allready suggested.
second, check if a correct scsi-terminator is used.
third, as hwmgr -show scsi does not show the drive, do a "hwmgr -scan scsi" to rescan the scsi bus.
a new device will be created (tape1).
you may want to use "hwmgr -e tape1 tape0" (exchange) to keep references to the drive as tape0 (if used in scripts).

Re: HP DAT72 on AlphaServer DS20
I cant use 68 pin cable b'coz there is D-ROM which attached to the same cable, and also its a internal tape drive so there is no terminator.
OS is TRU64 UNIX 5.1A
@ ROB
How can I check the controllers that it is either 3X-KZPCA-AA or 3X-KZPEA-DB
@ Hart
Yes, I am using the correct SCSI type.
secondly, I have also perform the hwmgr -scan scsi
but result was same

Re: HP DAT72 on AlphaServer DS20
That is lists empty means it is not detected on the bus.
I don't think you've got the right device for this bus.
research on specs bring this up:
http://h18000.www1.hp.com/products/quickspecs/10239_na/10239_na.HTML
lists the tlz10 as 12/24GB DAT
section "Technical Specifications" lists the 12/24 DAT as Fast-Wide/ SE
As you say you've got a CDROM connected to the same bus,
that also suggests Fast-Wide/SE IS the type of scsi active on this cable.
NB! this is NOT "LVD" (low voltage).
http://h10010.www1.hp.com/wwpc/us/en/en/WF06a/12169-304612-3446234-3446234-3446234-63890.html
lists the drive HP DAT72 as Ultra160 LVD SCSI
you cannot mix LVD devices and "normal" SCSI on the same bus.

1. _Any_ proper SCSI configuration has a
terminator at each end of the cable.
2. I know nothing about your tape drive, or
its SCSI connector, but I've seen 50-68-pin
SCSI adapters used to connect a 50-pin device
to a 68-pin cable.

Are you a slow learner?
