Firmware update fails as follows:

Still researching. This is the only LTO5 I have access to so unless Shane has 
one I may not be able to make progress.
(Its way long out of warranty and support)

We mostly use this for generic st driver and changer testing for RHEL and it 
has not been updated for at least two years.

I left the log of the failure to partition out

Here it is

Hello Emanuel

I am using this device, its an Ultrium 5 (LTO5)
Its an older changer and I am unable to update the firmware, still working on 
that.

What version of mt are you using, as I am testing using a RHEL7.2 base and the 
upstream patched kernel.

Linux example.redhat.com 4.3.3 #1 SMP Tue Jan 5 15:58:47 EST 2016 x86_64 x86_64 
x86_64 GNU/Linux

# tapeinfo -f /dev/st0
Product Type: Tape Drive
Vendor ID: 'QUANTUM '
Product ID: 'ULTRIUM 5       '

SerialNumber: 'HU1023AKHE'
MinBlock: 1
MaxBlock: 16777215
SCSI ID: 0

Drive is working fine,

# mt -f /dev/st0 status
SCSI 2 tape drive:
File number=0, block number=0, partition=0.
Tape block size 512 bytes. Density code 0x58 (no translation).
Soft error count since last status=0
General status bits on (41010000):
 BOT ONLINE IM_REP_EN

This is what I get when I try and partition and I believe this may be a 
firmware issue for me.

What is the type of drive exactly? I still couldn't test with the LTO-5
drive as the machine it's connected to is being reinstalled.
