I can't address the cause of the problem; but I have had good luck using camcontrol reset <all | bus[:target:lun]> when my tape device wedges. This is less disruptive than a reboot. Use: camcontrol devlist -v To get a list of your busses and such if you can't remember the ID of the drive in question (I'm too lazy to walk over to the rack...). up@3.am wrote: > Please cc replies directly to me, as I am not subscribed to the lists. > > With some help from here, I was able to get this RAID card to see our > external DLT (QUANTUM 4000) SCSI tape drive by installing the aacp (pass > through) driver in addition to the aac driver. camcontrol now works, as > do basic mt commands and amcheck (amanda check). > > However, (amanda) dumps either hang, fail completely or fail after > transfering very little data.
