Using SCSI Tape with Enclosure

[Greg Wiggill]

Furthermore - what is the best format for loading a scsi controller
aic79xx module on reboot ?

	 modules.conf/modprobe.conf looks like 

		alias scsi_hostadapter1 st0 aic79xx

	   but lsmod and dmesg stills show its cleaned away on reboot ?

                    Have also tried the syntax 'install aic79xx command'
?


Thanks
Greg

Ashraf,

I'll repost this just in case you missed it.  It sounds like the drive
might not be attached.
------------------------------------
1)  Is the library Attached?

dmesg | grep Attached

This should return something like the following:

Attached scsi tape st0 at scsi0, channel 0, id 1, lun 0
-------------------------------------
Also,  I believe on IBM lines,  they shut off unused scsi id's.  So
check the scsi bios and make sure that the scsi id for your tape drive
is not turned off.

If you are not getting the Attached message in the above,  try
modprobing the st module.  You will also want to make sure your scsi
card is being detected as well and that the modules are being loaded for
that.

lsmod
