I was asked for some additional information regarding the configuration of
the system
System configuration:
Sun E450
Solaris 7
StorEdge L280 tape drive
Amanda 2.4.2
As I said in my previous message, we have been using the L280 with NetBackup
for several months, but have decided that it isn't the right solution for
our backup needs.
After reading through the README file in the amanda/contrib/sst
I downloaded the drivers that were provided by John the beginning of this
month and installed the 32 bit version in /usr/kernel/drv
I copied the sst.conf from the amanda/contrib/sst directory and changed the
target number of the device to 6 so thta it matches our /dev/sg device
number (/dev/sg/c3t6l0)
I did
add_drv sst
and it said that the device was added but not attached
I also added
type=ddi_pseudo;name=sst;minor=0rsst\A1
to the /etc/devlink.tab file
we did an init 0
and then boot -r
the devices were not built in /dev and we have been unable to figure out
why
I have also tried to use the /dev/sg/c3t6l0 device directly, but have had
no success...
thank you again for any help you can give.!
