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
