We just got an HP MSL4048 tape library and had it connected to a rx3600(HP-UX11i v2)server via a SAN switch. After installing the kernel driver "schgr", ioscan lists 2 entries related to the tape library:
intg1.cdr-ss.com:/roothome # ioscan -fnkCautoch
Class I H/W Path Driver S/W State H/W Type Description
==========================================================================
autoch 0 0/2/1/0/4/0.1.2.255.0.0.1 schgr CLAIMED DEVICE HP MSL G3 Series
/dev/rac/c2t0d1
autoch 1 0/2/1/0/4/0.1.6.255.0.0.1 schgr CLAIMED DEVICE HP MSL G3 Series
/dev/rac/c4t0d1
intg1.cdr-ss.com:/roothome #
Now my question is how do I use this tape library to do backup using fbackup/tar? Did I miss anything here?
Thanks a lot in advance.

SolutionBetter to create a zone with only 1 path to the library to avoid confusion.
For simple tools like tar or whatever, you can use "mc" command or the web frontend to load a tape into the drive, then run such command.
Hope this helps!

Torsten.

Re: How to use HP MSL 4048 tape library?
But how do I access these 2 drives from HP-UX OS? Do I need to worry about the UNCLAIMED/UNKNOWN entries in the following ioscan output? Thanks a lot.
