Subject:   problem with tape units
Message-ID:  <20040220185252.A8056@asu.edu>

next in thread | raw e-mail | index | archive | help
I recently replace an ait tape drive with another one of the same
model,, a sony sdx 300.

Now, when I try to do anything with /dev/sa0 like get status or erase,
I get a ton of errors.  Below is the output of dmesg from it.  Do I
need to remake the sa device?  Don't know why things would be timing
out.  I have an active terminator on the unit.. it is an external tape
unit, connected to an adaptec 29160 card (wide).  It is the ONLY
device on the scsi card and set at ID 10. I am using freebsd4.9.

any advice would be appreciated
