Ultrium Autoloader

[Michael Gretton]

We recently had an HP CE move an Ultrium Autoloader from one machine to another. I have never used this autoloader before and I am unable to find any of the documentation that came with it. I have searched the HP documentation site with no success. 1) Where can I get this documentation online? 2) I am trying to find the documentation so I can figure out the MC command. I don't know how to address the device so I can manually manipulate the autoloader.

Thanks in advance,

Mike

Check out Doc ID KBAN00000190.

This document details the steps involved in configuring tape drives/libraries, the picker, how to test, etc...

Mike,
if you want to get docs on autoloader then go to http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/Product.jsp?prodTypeId=12169&prodCatId=64247&locale=en_US and enter autoloader product number in the field. After main support page of this product will be displayed, find 'manuals' link to the right

Mike,

In the attached document, it is described how the device file for the autochanger should be created.

Thanks to everyone for helping me with this. TO my shock and dismay, I never got an email saying that anyone responded to my question (I did have the check box checked). I was about to make a call to HP. Also, when I assigned points and hit "submit" I get a page saying "thanks...yadda yadda " and then it returns me to the message. However, it doesn't show as me assigning points. This happens all the time. It is so frustrating because I have to do it twice! I gave everyone 10 points as most responses seem helpful. I am am just now sorting through them. If a moderator is reading this, please fix the Web site. THis has happened to me many times. I am runnin IE V 6.02. If it is my browser, pls inform me what I should be running.

Mike,

If you do not get any mailed notifications of new responses, then probably your email address is configured incorrectly in your Forums profile (see "-> my profile" in the menu on the lft side).

If you think you have it right and still have problems, then please contact me (frank_slootweg@hp.com) specifying your correct/desired e-mail address.
