Different devices with F/C Mux & Tape Library
We have been having some problems in
relation to the use of a HP Surestore
Tape Library unit 20/700, with a A4688
F/C mux (bridge). The equipment is set
up through a switch from an N4000
server. The problems we are having relate
to the server not being able to see the
devices in the tape library unit. This
happens occassionally where one minute
we can all devices (robot and four DLT 8000
drives) and then we can only see the robot
on all 8 of the devices 0-8. I've attached
an example of the output of ioscan where
we have the problem and then not having
the problem. It is intermittant and is
probably the mux loosing it's config. I was
wondering if anyone else out there has
experienced a similar problem and what
their resolution was.
Thanks
Michael

Re: Different devices with F/C Mux & Tape Library
Have you updated to the latest firmware on the 4/1 bridge? 2006y
Do you have the latest FC HBA drivers? and patches?
Have you applied EMS patch PHSS_24044 or instead installed latest ipr107 July release.
All above fix alot of problems.

2. Updating the firmware to 2006y
3. The communication from the F/C switch
was changed from loop to fabric. Arbitrated loop is not supported in the A4688A F/C switch, even though it was working for us for two months...

Re: Different devices with F/C Mux & Tape Library
I am facing the same problem in a similiar setup. Only difference is that we have a V class server instead of N class. Can you please tell me from where you got the new firmware for the FC-MUX ( bridge). I could not locate it in the web.
many thanks
