Re: Exabyte VXA tape drives - anyone using?

Run it through strace(1) and ktrace(1) in Linux and see what devices it
talks to in /dev and see if they can be emulated.  It's probably talking
to /dev/ns{r,a}0 and /dev/ch0, depending on udev/autodev/
foo-bar-latest-greatest linux framework.

Exabyte VXA tape drives - anyone using?

2007-06-27 Thread Rob

Hi All,
We have an Exabyte VXA-2 tape drive that I'm planning to hook up to a FreeBSD 
server.  It's been on different box running linux for a few years.

Wondering if anyone has tried to run the vxaTool utility for this drive using 
Linux emulation on FreeBSD?  It's just a simple utility for operating  running 
diagnostics.  Unfortunately, source isn't provided, nor a BSD binary.

 -Thanks,  RW
