I know that the old school IBM 3583 tape drive has some license
feature enable but I dont know where can I check If the feature
currently enable or not on our drive...
Ive checked trough Web Base and Panel base but nowhere I can found
Model : UTL358302 ( IBM ULT3583-TL )
Drive Firmware 73P5
Library Firmware 6.10.0004
On our TS3310 tape Drive , It is very easy to check. as it is included on Web Base Information list
I have used ioscan -fnC tape and the system identified the tape drive. what is the command to show a listing of what is on the tape? I have used ls /dev/rmt/rmt0 to no avail. can anyone help?
Thanks in advance (10 Replies)
Hey folks,
Linux admin here, forced to use Opensolaris to try to use ufsdump/ufsrestore to get some data of some old tapes.
I've got Opensolaris 2009.06 on x86 and a Sony SDX-700V.
As a "control" experiment, I booted the system with a Linux live CD and the tape drive worked perfectly.

BACKUP_DELHOST(8) AFS Command Reference BACKUP_DELHOST(8)NAME
backup_delhost - Deletes a Tape Coordinator entry from the Backup Database
SYNOPSIS
backup delhost -tapehost <tape machine name>
[-portoffset <TC port offset>] [-localauth]
[-cell <cell name>] [-help]
backup delh -t <tape machine name>
[-p <TC port offset>]
[-l] [-c <cell name>] [-h]
DESCRIPTION
The backup delhost command deletes the indicated Tape Coordinator entry from the Backup Database. It is then impossible to submit backup
operations to that Tape Coordinator, even if it is still running. To keep configuration information consistent, also remove the
corresponding entry from the /var/lib/openafs/backup/tapeconfig file on the Tape Coordinator machine.
To list the Tape Coordinator machines and port offsets defined in the Backup Database, issue the backup listhosts command.
OPTIONS -tapehost <tape machine name>
Specifies the hostname of the machine housing the Tape Coordinator to delete.
-portoffset <TC port offset>
Specifies the port offset number of the Tape Coordinator to delete. If omitted, it defaults to 0. If provided, it is an integer
between 0 (zero) and 58510, and must match the port offset number assigned to the same combination of Tape Coordinator and tape device
or file in the /var/lib/openafs/backup/tapeconfig file on the Tape Coordinator machine indicated by the -tapehost argument.
-localauth
Constructs a server ticket using a key from the local /etc/openafs/server/KeyFile file. The backup command interpreter presents it to
the Backup Server, Volume Server and VL Server during mutual authentication. Do not combine this flag with the -cell argument. For more
details, see backup(8).
-cell <cell name>
Names the cell in which to run the command. Do not combine this argument with the -localauth flag. For more details, see backup(8).
-help
Prints the online help for this command. All other valid options are ignored.
EXAMPLES
The following command deletes the Backup Database entry for the Tape Coordinator with port offset 2 on the Tape Coordinator machine
"backup3.abc.com":
% backup delhost -tapehost backup3.abc.com -portoffset 2
PRIVILEGE REQUIRED
The issuer must be listed in the /etc/openafs/server/UserList file on every machine where the Backup Server is running, or must be logged
onto a server machine as the local superuser "root" if the -localauth flag is included.
