Greetings,
Start by typing:
lssf /dev/rmt/0m
What does it give?
Hello and thank you ...
lssf /dev/rmt/0m gives following:
stape card instance 2 scsi target 2 scsi lun 0 at&t best density available at address 10/0/15/0.2.0 /dev/rmt/0m
there is also 0mb, 0mn, 0mnb, c2t2d0BEST, c2t2d0BESTb, c2t2d0BESTn, c2t2d0BESTnb in the /dev/rmt directory. when I do an lssf on these, it appears they are at&t or berkeley, no rewind, etc. What this means I have no idea!
Likewise, along the same lines, I tried to use the CD_ROM (Lite-On LTR-24102B) and floppy. In sam they are shown as "unused"? I tried to mount the CD_ROM by following a HP-UX installation guide. It says to first search for the drive with /usr/sbin/ioscan | grep -i CD. Comes back with a hardware path and lists the Lite-On LTS-24102B. Then I tried to mount the drive per book using sam by first selecting disks and file systems, then selecting file systems, then selecing add local file system not using the logical volume manager from actions pulldown menu, selected the Lite-On drive, entered the mount directory as /SD_CDROM, checked create new file system box, checked set user id execution, and unchecked "at every system boot box". But when I said ok, the system prompted with "checking for unmounted file system ..." followed by "creating a new file system ..." followed by "the command, newfs(1m), used to create a new file system on /dev/rdsk/c0t0d0 has failed. The stderr output from the command is shown below.
newfs(hfs): cannot open /dev/rdsk/c0t0d0
newfs(hfs): device busy"
I also tried to mount the drive without sam per book with /usr/sbin/mount/dev/dsk/c1t2d0 (also tried c0t0d0)/SD_CDROM but resulted in "not found".
The tape drive is my highest priority.
This is very frustrating. Thanks in advance.
