Configuring Tape Drives

If this is the case, the host system which is connected to Drive 1 must also have the robotic

control. Also, the library should be in RANDOM mode and BASE configuration. See the

operator's guide supplied with the unit for information on setting library mode and

configuration.

Assume a configuration as follows:

lsdev -C -c tape

rmt0 Available 00-02-01-5,0 Other SCSI Tape Drive

rmt1 Available 00-02-01-6,0 Other SCSI Tape Drive

If drive 1 is SCSI ID 5, the robotic control for the robotic library will be LUN 1 of this SCSI

ID. Assuming vscsi1 is the correct adapter, make the passthru device (ovpass) as follows:

mkdev -c media_changer -t ovpass -s scsi -p vscsi1 -w 5,1

Configuring IBM 3590 Stacker Robotic Controls

If you plan to use a Tape Stacker Half-inch (TSH) robotic storage device, see the VERITAS

support web site for the vendor model associated with the TSH robot type.

Perform the following steps to check for and create the necessary device files:

1. Display the SCSI tape devices configured in the system using the following command:

/usr/sbin/lsdev -C -c tape

rmt0 Defined 00-02-00-4,0 Other SCSI Tape Drive

rmt1 Available 00-08-00-6,0 2.3 GB 8mm Tape Drive

rmt12 Available 00-04-01-6,0 IBM 3590 Tape Drive and Medium Changer

2. The SCSI robotic path for the IBM 3590 is the same as the no rewind on close tape

path. When configuring the TSH SCSI robotic path, the robotic control path for the

3590 would be /dev/rmt12.1. The tape drive path would also be /dev/rmt12.1.

Configuring Tape Drives

If you are using IBM tape drives, VERITAS recommends that you install the IBM AIX tape

driver. Refer to the IBM documentation when using this driver.

If you are using other tape drives, VERITAS recommends that you use the IBM AIX OST

(other SCSI tape) driver. Refer to the IBM documentation when using this driver.
