IBM ultrium tape drive not detecting on HPUX

[Prasanth V Aravind]

Hi All,

We have ultrium 3 external tape drive which i connected to a hp L class servers (hpux 11.11).

But its not showing the tape device in ioscan.


I ran isf once, but no use.


DO i need to install tape driver for IBM drive ?


Thanks in advance.

Maybe there are special drivers by the vendor, but please post "ioscan -fn" first.

Is the "stape" driver included in the kernel?

unknown -1 0/0/1/0.2.0 UNCLAIMED UNKNOWN IBM ULT3580-TD3

unknown = no driver

Install either the "stape" kernel driver (via SAM) or a special driver from your provider.
