hi, anybody out there, who knows anything about scsi-streamers ? My problem is, that 'mt' is the only program which recognize the streamer. Tar and dump are not able to read or write to/from the tape. The following sequence is from the file /private/adm/messages: --- Apr 30 17:16:27 ccwnoc mach: SCSI 53C90A Controller, Target 7, as sc0 at 0x2114000 Apr 30 17:16:27 ccwnoc mach: MAXTOR XT-8380S as sd0 at sc0 target 1 lun 0 Apr 30 17:16:27 ccwnoc mach: Disk Label: NeXT_2.0 Apr 30 17:16:27 ccwnoc mach: Disk Capacity 349MB, Device Block 1024 bytes Apr 30 17:16:27 ccwnoc mach: WANGTEK 5150ES SCSI ES41 as st0 at sc0 target 5 lun 0 Apr 30 17:16:27 ccwnoc mach: Generic SCSI Device as sg0 at sc0 target 7 lun 7 --- Next an example for a self-explaining error-message: /Users/ccwulff 13 > tar cf /dev/rst0 . tar: tape write error: I/O error And the help from the 'Console': --- Apr 30 17:38:53 ccwnoc mach: st: cmd = 0xa sr_io_status = 2H Apr 30 17:38:53 ccwnoc mach: Sense key = 0x5 Sense Code = 0x0 --- If anybody can give me a hint, mail to the address ccwulff@ccwnoc.hanse.de would be preferred. thanks in advance, Carl Christian Wulff
