Julian,

The drive is installed in an IBM xServer 340, which has an on-board
Adaptec AIC7899 Ultra160 controller:

scsi0 : Adaptec AIC7XXX EISA/VLB/PCI SCSI HBA DRIVER, Rev 6.2.36
        <Adaptec aic7899 Ultra160 SCSI adapter>
        aic7899: Ultra160 Wide Channel A, SCSI Id=7, 32/253 SCBs

scsi1 : Adaptec AIC7XXX EISA/VLB/PCI SCSI HBA DRIVER, Rev 6.2.36
        <Adaptec aic7899 Ultra160 SCSI adapter>
        aic7899: Ultra160 Wide Channel B, SCSI Id=7, 32/253 SCBs

scsi2 : Adaptec AIC7XXX EISA/VLB/PCI SCSI HBA DRIVER, Rev 6.2.36
        <Adaptec 29160 Ultra160 SCSI adapter>
        aic7892: Ultra160 Wide Channel A, SCSI Id=15, 32/253 SCBs

The Sony tape drive is actually installed in a 40-cart changer
(SpectraDrive 10000), connected to this server via external SCSI.

Here is my device entry in bacula-sd.conf file from that server:

Device {
  Name = SpectraDrive2                        #
  Media Type = 8mmAIT-2
  Archive Device = /dev/nst0
  AutomaticMount = yes;               # when device opened, read it
  AlwaysOpen = yes;
  RemovableMedia = yes;
  RandomAccess = no;
  Drive Index = 1
  # as recommended by btape
# Hardware End of Medium = yes
  BSF at EOM             = no
  Autochanger     = Yes
  Changer Device  = /dev/changer
  Changer Command = "/home/bacula/etc/bacula/scripts/mtx-changer %c %o
%S %a 1"
}


Hope this helps!
