Mount MO drive
Hi,
I need help again. I add a SCSI card to a B2600 with HP UX 10.20. The MO drive is shown as below, but I can`t mount the drive.
I used mknod to make a mounting point, like all time before, but this time it does not show it with ioscan.
# ioscan -fnC disk
Class I H/W Path Driver S/W State H/W Type Description
=======================================================================
disk 0 10/0/14/0.0.0 sdisk CLAIMED DEVICE TSSTcorpIDE CDROM
/dev/dsk/c0t0d0 /dev/rdsk/c0t0d0
disk 3 10/0/15/0.5.0 sdisk CLAIMED DEVICE ATA SATA SSD
/dev/dsk/c2t5d0 /dev/rdsk/c2t5d0
disk 1 10/0/15/0.6.0 sdisk CLAIMED DEVICE ATA SATA SSD
/dev/dsk/c2t6d0 /dev/rdsk/c2t6d0
disk 13 10/1/2/0.2.0 sdisk CLAIMED DEVICE FUJITSU M2512A
I used mknod as follow:
mknod /dev/dsk/c4t2d0 b 31 0x016000
mknod /dev/rdsk/c4t2d0 c 188 0x013000
Which setting I should use to get the mounting point set?
Thanks.

Re: Mount MO drive
Well you should use the block special file to mount the drive (so /dev/dsk/...)
However I have questions...
How did you figure out the device major and minor numbers for the mknod commands? Becasue at first glance they aren't making a lot of sense. I'd love to see the output of the following commands on this system:
lsdev -d sdisk
ioscan -fH 10/1/2

Re: Mount MO drive
Hello mat72,
I am assuming you are referring to the disk @ HW path 10/1/2/0.2.0 ?
# ioscan -fnC disk
Class I H/W Path Driver S/W State H/W Type Description
=======================================================================
disk 0 10/0/14/0.0.0 sdisk CLAIMED DEVICE TSSTcorpIDE CDROM
/dev/dsk/c0t0d0 /dev/rdsk/c0t0d0
disk 3 10/0/15/0.5.0 sdisk CLAIMED DEVICE ATA SATA SSD
/dev/dsk/c2t5d0 /dev/rdsk/c2t5d0
disk 1 10/0/15/0.6.0 sdisk CLAIMED DEVICE ATA SATA SSD
/dev/dsk/c2t6d0 /dev/rdsk/c2t6d0
disk 13 10/1/2/0.2.0 sdisk CLAIMED DEVICE FUJITSU M2512A ==> no device files are created
If it is the correct one, you may use the insf command to create the device file , # insf -H 10/1/2/0.2.0
Run # ioscan -fnC disk to confirm the disk dsf availability in OS .
You may use LVM to create vg/lvol and start use the space available .

Re: Mount MO drive
Hi,
thanks for answer. The command line mknow I used in the past, when I had not been able to connect the MO and it worked. This time something went wrong and the command does not work anymore.
# lsdev -d sdisk
Character Block Driver Class
188 31 sdisk disk
# ioscan -fH disk 10/1/2
