How to install a DAT drive on AIX.
Hello, we are trying to install an HP DAT drive on an IBM AIX RS6000 server. We have attached the SCSI connection and power cylced the unit, but still cannot see the device in smit.
I am only a couple months into AIX, so I am very green! The server we are working on is in a lab environment, so we fool around with it. Any advice on the step to follow for attaching, installing and configuring a piece of hardware (DAT Drive) would be very helpful. Thank you! |

The lsdev command displayed nothing. We did the shutdown -h command and also did the shutdown -r command in an attempt to have the system recognize the existance of the DAT drive.
I went into smit and attempted to Add a Tape Drive. scsi0 Available 10-80 Wide/Fast-20 SCSI I/O Controller I selected the scsi0, as this was the only option. We connected the scsi cable to the internal scsi connection. We originally tested the connection with the tape scsi ID set to 4 and then tried 5. We keep getting this error: Before command completion, additional instructions may appear below. Method error (/etc/methods/cfgsctape): 0514-047 Cannot access a device. |
