HP-UX 11.23 (IA-64) server and Library ESL-322

[Beauregard]

Hi all,

I would like to know if someone have this kind of setup.

We have this setup and it's not working. The command mc -p /dev/rac/c9t0d0 -q return an error.

A call has been opened with hp.

Thanks

Hi,

Well I don't have such setup. I am just wondering which error you are getting and could able to comment on.
If the picker/robotic device is configured correctly , the mc command should return the Library details such as Vendor ID , Product ID , Firmware verion .

How did you do the setup of the library with the server , like Interface Manager etc ?

1) I actived the new driver schgr in the kernel

2) ioscan -funC autoch :
vlr3bs1i.brp.local.root >ioscan -funC autoch
Class I H/W Path Driver S/W State H/W Type Description
==========================================================================
autoch 0 0/2/1/0.24.3.255.0.0.0 schgr CLAIMED DEVICE HP

/dev/rac/c9t0d0

3) Ran the mc command : mc -p /dev/rac/c9t0d0 -q

vlr3bs1i.brp.local.root >mc -p /dev/rac/c9t0d0 -q
ERROR: 0x0 No Sense : 0x0 No additional sense information

4) I checked the driver for /dev/rac/c9t0d0

vlr3bs1i.brp.local.root >ll /dev/rac/c9t0d0

Thanks to help me, I appreciated.

Hi,
I guess you are using the Fiber port on the robotic controller card. In this case you need to use "sctl (203)" device driver ( SCSI Pass Through Driver ) for robotices . You can create a new device file with 203
as major number.

The error show that query to robotic is failed on account of "No sense". The cause could be communication problem depending how it is setup.

Do you see the robotics recognised by Interface Manager or CommandView ESL ?
Hows are the LEDs on the robotics controller card?
How the whole setup is done , like which server , IM etc?
