HPUX 9.00 tape driver

[Sherif A. Louis]

We have a G70 server S800 with HPUX 9.00. We want to install a DDS2 tape that requires stape driver instead of the tape2 driver already configured. Can anyone assist me to where i can find that driver or send it to me? thank you

HP-UX 9.00??? Wow!

I think because of there was no dds2 available at the time when 9.00 was present, there is no driver for this device.

I may be wrong, but this would be the good news for you ...

well u are right torsten.. it is a hell of an operating system CRAZ-EE i must say, anyways i really need that driver!! it must be somewhere out there!!

Maybe.

hp-ux 9.00 is from 1992 (?), DDS2 from 1993 (?). But I guess there was no stape driver for this OS, only tape 2 and nio (?) because of the internal busses and I/O cards.

if I remember correctly, there was a stape driver in 9.04....(I had an H70 and K250 w/ DDS2's). 9.00 may be to early..and finding it nigh impossible as the OS has been out of support for something like 10 years??
