Well I finally got fed up with it and desided to go back to the frist step. I opend the server and verified all the phisical connections.
I found out that the tape drive was actually connected to the host 0 and bus 1 and the jumper on the tape drive was set to id1.
and I was setting it up at mkdev tape as on host 0 bus 0 id 1.
Well after actually installing it to the propper settings it still didnt work, till I noticed at boot that the server was recognising the tape drive at id 2. That was odd because I verified the jumper and it was on id 1. so to make a long story short I just set the parameter hots 0 moved the cable to bus 0 and set the tape id to 2 and it worked.


Thanks for the advice, I gues I learn more the hard way.
