Question for both of you (Gene and Thomas) ???
What about my scsitapedev if i don't have On my system the tape is /dev/nst0,
and the changer is either /dev/sg1 ???
Here is the result of my dev :
ls -al n* |more
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 8 jan 26 2000 nrst12 -> rmt/0lbn
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 8 jan 26 2000 nrst20 -> rmt/0mbn
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 8 jui 5 10:35 nrst22 -> rmt/1lbn
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 8 jui 5 10:35 nrst23 -> rmt/2lbn
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 8 jan 26 2000 nrst28 -> rmt/0hbn
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 8 jui 5 10:35 nrst30 -> rmt/1mbn
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 8 jui 5 10:35 nrst31 -> rmt/2mbn
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 8 jan 26 2000 nrst36 -> rmt/0cbn
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 8 jui 5 10:35 nrst38 -> rmt/1hbn
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 8 jui 5 10:35 nrst39 -> rmt/2hbn
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 8 jui 5 10:35 nrst46 -> rmt/1cbn
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 8 jui 5 10:35 nrst47 -> rmt/2cbn
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root other 27 jan 26 2000 null -> ../devices/pseudo/
mm@0:null
And nothing with /dev/sg.....
I'm on Solaris 7 and i have a Storedge L20 (robot) with DLT-8000 (Dlttape IV)
So i have one tape on /dev/rmt/1...
and the other tape on /dev/rmt/2...
on /dev/rmt/0... it's my native backup on my box....don't need help for this one
!
Thank's in advance !!!
