A few months ago I brought up a new server using an Adaptec 2200S RAID card, and it's been running fine with a RAID 1 array on channel 0. Today I tried to move the DLT (Quantum 4000) over to this server to make it the amanda server, so I plugged it into the controller's external port for channel 1. When I do, neither amanda or mt will see the device, I get: mt: /dev/nsa0: Device not configured I tried rebooting (production box, but it had to be tried) and the Adaptec BIOS correctly recognized the device, but I still got that error. I tried moving the SCSI cable to the channel 0 port, but that caused serious panics and an ugly fscking power-cycle. Power cycling the tape drive repeatedly throughout this had no effect. I even did a "sh MAKEDEV sa1" thinking that the 0 in nsa0 might have something to do with the SCSI channel. No dice. I'm all out of ideas...if anyone can spare a clue, please respond by cc'ing me directly, as I am not subscribed to the lists. TIA, James Smallacombe PlantageNet, Inc.
