Not sure about this now..... I have gone through checked all the SAN configuration and it is all looks 100% happy. However, when doing cfgmgr followed by lsdev -Cc tape i get nothing in reply so suggesting the server cannot see the drives.

I know the Fibre card is working as this server is connected to the HP EVA so its definately logged into the SAN fabric, I know the drives are logged in and working via the SAN as the same 4 drives zoned to the HPUX servers appeared straight away.....

So if anyone can think of anything else to check i would be grateful........

Hi,

I have solved part 1 and actually got the server to see the tape drives now....If i do an lsdev -Cc tape i get this output

rmt0 Available 07-08-02 Other FC SCSI Tape Drive
rmt1 Available 07-08-02 Other FC SCSI Tape Drive
rmt2 Available 07-08-02 Other FC SCSI Tape Drive
rmt3 Available 07-08-02 Other FC SCSI Tape Drive

Just wondering now about making sure i have the right drivers. With these being HP Ultrium LTO4 drives and the fact that if i go to the drivers/patches on HP's site it does not quote AIX as an OS does anyone know where i can get the right drivers??? And as an AIX novice how i install them???

Thanks.......
