I don't know but . . . I was just looking at the lin_tape downloads and there is a lin_tape-1.27.0-1.src.rpm.bin dated 09/03/2009.
David >>> janecb01 <tsm-fo...@backupcentral.com> 9/17/2009 3:42 PM >>> Hi, I have compiled the latest Lin_tape and installed lin_taped on my Linux RHEL5 server.. I am using a Netapp Nearstor VTL emulating IBM LTO4 drives. Sandiscovery will not work, and at best will crash the system every few hours or so unless it is turned off - / or set to PASSIVE. When I scan the system, the drives are dicovered and connected to the lin_tape driver: lin_tape: detected device at host 1, channel 0, id 0, lun 1 IBM ULTRIUM-TD4 022C lin_tape: successfully attached IBMtape0 lin_tape: detected device at host 1, channel 0, id 0, lun 2 IBM ULTRIUM-TD4 022C lin_tape: successfully attached IBMtape1 lin_tape: detected device at host 1, channel 0, id 0, lun 3 but as soon as tapes start loading we get various errors: lin_tape: IBMtape20----51868 tape_logsense_page() unable to do log sense lin_tape: IBMtape20----51868 tape_logsense_page() unable to do log sense lin_tape: IBMChgr1-----80401 changer_check_result() sensekey: 6 asc: 28 ascq: 0 lin_tape: IBMtape19----b4fb0 tape_set_all_parms() unable to change recovery timeouts The crashing has become very annoying - IBM recommends a QLogic hba driver that is not supported by QLogic or RHEL5 (8.01.06) We have 8.02.23 - but that might not be related. IBM has been studying the information for a while now.. but this is getting very frustrated. The lin_tape compiled without error for my kernel. Sandiscovery will not adjust the devices as it does on AIX perfectly.. Any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated.
