Tape Drive Connected to a Sun Ultra 10/Solaris 2.7
I have a Sun Ultra 10/Solaris 2.7 with a differential SCSI card connected to a Supter DLt1 Tape Drive. When I boot the machine, and I do a probe-scsi-all in the very beginning of the boot process. It shows up correctly. If I wait for the boot process to proceed and then I do a probe-scsi-all, I get a Bus fault error.

Any clues as to how I get debug the problem. I have a feeling that the SCSI card OR the tape drive are damaged.

Thanks

UK(4)							   BSD Kernel Interfaces Manual 						     UK(4)

NAME

     uk -- SCSI user-level driver

SYNOPSIS

     uk* at scsibus? target ? lun ?

DESCRIPTION

     The uk driver provides support for a process to address devices on the SCSI bus for which there is no configured driver.

     A SCSI adapter must also be separately configured into the system before this driver makes sense.

KERNEL CONFIGURATION

     If a count is given, that number of uk devices will be configured into the NetBSD kernel.

IOCTLS

     The uk driver has no ioctls of its own but rather acts as a medium for the generic scsi(4) ioctls.  These are described in <sys/scsiio.h>.

FILES

     /dev/uk[0-255]  unknown SCSI devices.

DIAGNOSTICS

     All scsi(4) debug ioctls work on uk devices.

SEE ALSO

     ioctl(2), cd(4), ch(4), scsi(4), sd(4), ss(4), st(4)

HISTORY

     The uk driver appeared in 386BSD 0.1.
