Rory,
Am I correct that the 124t has two drives? I loaded 16 tapes and configured
them as Drive1 (/dev/nst0) and Drive2 (/dev/nst1) but am only showing 8 tapes
regardless of the Drive number I specify. Any ideas?
*status slots
The defined Storage resources are:
1: File
2: Tape
Select Storage resource (1-2): 2
Enter autochanger drive[0]:
Connecting to Storage daemon Tape at scrappy.microslu.washington.edu:9103 ...
3306 Issuing autochanger "slots" command.
Device "DELL_124T" has 8 slots.
Connecting to Storage daemon Tape at scrappy.microslu.washington.edu:9103 ...
3306 Issuing autochanger "list" command.
Slot | Volume Name | Status | Media Type | Pool
|
------+------------------+-----------+----------------------+--------------------|
1*| 000017L4 | ? | ? |

2 | | | |

3*| 000016L4 | ? | ? |

4*| 000012L4 | ? | ? |

7*| 000013L4 | ? | ? |

8*| 000014L4 | ? | ? |

Also, if it does have two drives why wouldn't it show up in lsscsi? I'm only
seeing /dev/st0? Should I specify /dev/sg1 in my sd conf file instead?

I have exactly the same LT04 autoloader.
# lsscsi -g
[0:0:0:0] disk Areca ARC-1220-VOL#00 R001 /dev/sda /dev/sg0
[0:0:16:0] process Areca RAID controller R001 - /dev/sg1
[1:0:0:0] tape QUANTUM ULTRIUM 4 2210 /dev/st0 /dev/sg3
[1:0:0:1] mediumx DELL PV-124T 0075 /dev/sch0 /dev/sg4
[2:0:0:0] cd/dvd TSSTcorp CDDVDW SH-S223C SB01 /dev/sr0 /dev/sg2
You will note that the tape (ULTRIUM 4) and autoloader (PV-124T) are on
different devices. On my machine, I address the tape at /dev/nst0, while the
autochanger is at /dev/sg4.
You can try the following stanza (assuming the correct tape and autochanger
device paths and nothing is currently loaded in slot 1):
export ADEV=/dev/sg4
export TDEV=/dev/nst0
mtx -f ${ADEV} status && mtx -f ${ADEV} load 1 && mt -f ${TDEV} status
I'm using the tape library on a SAS card and achieving about 100MB/s throughput
with hardware compression.
Regards
Rory
