Suse Linux 8.0 not recognizing SureStore 24x6
I have Suse Linux 8, running on a Compaq 8500r, with a 4200 series RAID card. I have one external array connected to the 4200.
I have connect an HP SureStore 24x6 to this system, when booting the device is detected as SCSI ID 5 on the built-in SCSI of the 8500(it is the only external device on the bus), but when the operating system boots, the operating system does not discover the device and add it to /dev/st* as one expects. I have /dev/st0 and /dev/st1 but neither response to a mt -f /dev/st* command, I have verified that the multi-lun kernel parameter is set, as well as SCSI tape. Are there Unix tools to scan the SCSI bus and report through the OS what is seen?
I believe the tape drive itself is OK as I pulled it from backup on a Win2K system.
Any help here greatly appreciated.

Re: Suse Linux 8.0 not recognizing SureStore 24x6
looks like OS, not autoloader problem. Post your question into Linux section of ITRC forum http://forums.itrc.hp.com/cm/FamilyHome/1,,118,00.html .
Please do not forget that these autoloaders have drive hardwired to LUN 0 and robot (autochanger) hardwired to LUN 1.
Also pay attention to autoloader option switch (at the back of the unit) and drive's dip switches (at the bottom of the unit). In most common configs autoloader option=7, and drive's dip switches all are on except 3rd is off

Re: Suse Linux 8.0 not recognizing SureStore 24x6
Tape devices are NOT supported on a RAID card.
Connect the dat 24*6 to an normal scsi card ,such as adaptec 2940 an it will run.
see also at following webpage:
recommanded scsi card for tape devices
