Connecting DLT8000

[Givi]

Dear all,

I have conected 2 DLT8000 drive located in one enclosure to hp 9000 (hp-ux 11.00). When I am trying to connect different enclosure with same kind DLTs instead of first one OS says that there are not any DLTs.

Any ideas will be appreciated

Hi Givi

Have you checked the SCSI IDs on the drives to make sure they are unique?

Can you see them with ioscan?
Have you included stape in you kernel?

[Givi]

DLTs have assigned unique IDs, all driveres are in the kernel. I checked them from SAM (wich actually uses ioscan as I know)there are no entries.

Are you sure that it is neccessary to reboot machine?

What kind of enclosure. HP has used a few different SCSI atandards on their servers and storage, and some connectors look identical.
It could just be a scsi device mis match.

When you add the device run insf to create a new device file for it. Check the man page for the particular options.
