Dear All,
I have a tape drive which has worked for offer 3yrs properly on SCO Openserver Release = 3.2v5.0.5. I tried to clean it all invain. I did a fresh installation of unix of the same OS and did the configuration still didn't bear fruits. The tape is a scsi and the configuration is as follows:
- Attached to adaptec 2940U2W - 7800 family
mkdev tape
1. Scsi tape drive
2. Scsi host adapter - blad for blad325
3. blad scsi host adapter - 0
4. scsi bus - 0
5. target id - 6
6. LUN of id - 0
and then updates the kernel.
When i try to backup or list contents of the tape drive using this command :-
tar cvfb /dev/rStp0 20 /u i get this error:-
tar: cannot open: /dev/rStp0
Please give a hand on this since am supposed to do full system backup.
