I found via google a reference to a Sun Managers posting (I'm not
subscribed to that list - not sure why!) about configuring an L9 to work
with the 'sgen' driver and mtx under Solaris 10:
http://www.fermit.org.uk/~awr/quickies/sun_l9_mtx.html
And in that post, it says to make sure the L9 isn't set to 'continuous'
mode. The mode config sub-menu on the L9 lists three options - autodetect,
stacker and random. Which one of those is 'continuous' referring to? I'll
try the other two out and see if can get the sgen driver to bind to the
changer device. At the moment it won't, though it does bind to the DLT
drive itself (that's what the '/dev/scsi/sequential/xxx' device link
points at).
The array has a very old firmware version as well - 2.06. I don't know if
that would affect the changer device being detected properly.
Craig.
