Hi guys, I'm trying to make a Dell pv-122t autochanger work with bacula - on a SLES 10 server.
if I use the standard mtx-changer script that comes with bacula 2.0.3, and give it a: # mtx -f /dev/sg0 status Storage Changer /dev/sg0:1 Drives, 8 Slots ( 0 Import/Export ) Data Transfer Element 0:Empty Storage Element 1:Full Storage Element 2:Full Storage Element 3:Full Storage Element 4:Full Storage Element 5:Full Storage Element 6:Full Storage Element 7:Full Storage Element 8:Full But if I then try to load something: # mtx -f /dev/sg0 load 3 Loading media from Storage Element 3 into drive 0...mtx: Request Sense: Long Report=yes mtx: Request Sense: Valid Residual=no mtx: Request Sense: Error Code=70 (Current) mtx: Request Sense: Sense Key=Aborted Command mtx: Request Sense: FileMark=no mtx: Request Sense: EOM=no mtx: Request Sense: ILI=no mtx: Request Sense: Additional Sense Code = 4E mtx: Request Sense: Additional Sense Qualifier = 00 mtx: Request Sense: BPV=no mtx: Request Sense: Error in CDB=no mtx: Request Sense: SKSV=no MOVE MEDIUM from Element Address 3 to 82 Failed and after this - even a status fails - until I reset the tapechanger :( It seems the device is in sequentiel-mode - and it should be in random mode. However, the pv-122t is "clever" in a way, that it, according to the manual, automatically detects if it's being used by a backup program and then switches to "random mode". Except it doesn't :( Anyone know how I can push this clever thing into "random mode" ? with the 120t - I found a listing that you could switch it by entering diagnostics mode (holding next+mode button in 5 secs) - but this device only has Cancel, Previous, Next and Enter buttons. All help would be very much appreciated. p.s. here's the dmesg output: scsi0 : Adaptec AIC7XXX EISA/VLB/PCI SCSI HBA DRIVER, Rev 6.2.36 <Adaptec 3960D 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 3960D Ultra160 SCSI adapter> aic7899: Ultra160 Wide Channel B, SCSI Id=7, 32/253 SCBs (scsi1:A:6): 80.000MB/s transfers (40.000MHz, offset 62, 16bit) Vendor: DELL Model: PV-122T Rev: J11r Type: Medium Changer ANSI SCSI revision: 02 Vendor: QUANTUM Model: SDLT320 Rev: 4949 Type: Sequential-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 02 and the output from when it fails: scsi1:0:5:0: Attempting to queue an ABORT message CDB: 0xa5 0x0 0x0 0x56 0x0 0x3 0x0 0x52 0x0 0x0 0x0 0x0 scsi1: At time of recovery, card was not paused >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Dump Card State Begins <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< scsi1: Dumping Card State while idle, at SEQADDR 0x8 Card was paused ACCUM = 0x4, SINDEX = 0x57, DINDEX = 0x26, ARG_2 = 0x0 HCNT = 0x0 SCBPTR = 0x0 SCSIPHASE[0x0] SCSISIGI[0x0] ERROR[0x0] SCSIBUSL[0x0] LASTPHASE[0x1] SCSISEQ[0x12] SBLKCTL[0xa] SCSIRATE[0x0] SEQCTL[0x10] SEQ_FLAGS[0xc0] SSTAT0[0x0] SSTAT1[0x8] SSTAT2[0x0] SSTAT3[0x0] SIMODE0[0x8] SIMODE1[0xa4] SXFRCTL0[0x80] DFCNTRL[0x0] DFSTATUS[0x89] STACK: 0x0 0x163 0x178 0x3 SCB count = 4 Kernel NEXTQSCB = 3 Card NEXTQSCB = 3 QINFIFO entries: Waiting Queue entries: Disconnected Queue entries: 0:2 QOUTFIFO entries: Sequencer Free SCB List: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 Sequencer SCB Info: 0 SCB_CONTROL[0x44] SCB_SCSIID[0x57] SCB_LUN[0x0] SCB_TAG[0x2] 1 SCB_CONTROL[0x0] SCB_SCSIID[0xff] SCB_LUN[0xff] SCB_TAG[0xff] 2 SCB_CONTROL[0x0] SCB_SCSIID[0xff] SCB_LUN[0xff] SCB_TAG[0xff] 3 SCB_CONTROL[0x0] SCB_SCSIID[0xff] SCB_LUN[0xff] SCB_TAG[0xff] 4 SCB_CONTROL[0x0] SCB_SCSIID[0xff] SCB_LUN[0xff] SCB_TAG[0xff] 5 SCB_CONTROL[0x0] SCB_SCSIID[0xff] SCB_LUN[0xff] SCB_TAG[0xff] 6 SCB_CONTROL[0x0] SCB_SCSIID[0xff] SCB_LUN[0xff] SCB_TAG[0xff] 7 SCB_CONTROL[0x0] SCB_SCSIID[0xff] SCB_LUN[0xff] SCB_TAG[0xff] 8 SCB_CONTROL[0x0] SCB_SCSIID[0xff] SCB_LUN[0xff] SCB_TAG[0xff] 9 SCB_CONTROL[0x0] SCB_SCSIID[0xff] SCB_LUN[0xff] SCB_TAG[0xff] 10 SCB_CONTROL[0x0] SCB_SCSIID[0xff] SCB_LUN[0xff] SCB_TAG[0xff] 11 SCB_CONTROL[0x0] SCB_SCSIID[0xff] SCB_LUN[0xff] SCB_TAG[0xff] 12 SCB_CONTROL[0x0] SCB_SCSIID[0xff] SCB_LUN[0xff] SCB_TAG[0xff] 13 SCB_CONTROL[0x0] SCB_SCSIID[0xff] SCB_LUN[0xff] SCB_TAG[0xff] 14 SCB_CONTROL[0x0] SCB_SCSIID[0xff] SCB_LUN[0xff] SCB_TAG[0xff] 15 SCB_CONTROL[0x0] SCB_SCSIID[0xff] SCB_LUN[0xff] SCB_TAG[0xff] 16 SCB_CONTROL[0x0] SCB_SCSIID[0xff] SCB_LUN[0xff] SCB_TAG[0xff] 17 SCB_CONTROL[0x0] SCB_SCSIID[0xff] SCB_LUN[0xff] SCB_TAG[0xff] 18 SCB_CONTROL[0x0] SCB_SCSIID[0xff] SCB_LUN[0xff] SCB_TAG[0xff] 19 SCB_CONTROL[0x0] SCB_SCSIID[0xff] SCB_LUN[0xff] SCB_TAG[0xff] 20 SCB_CONTROL[0x0] SCB_SCSIID[0xff] SCB_LUN[0xff] SCB_TAG[0xff] 21 SCB_CONTROL[0x0] SCB_SCSIID[0xff] SCB_LUN[0xff] SCB_TAG[0xff] 22 SCB_CONTROL[0x0] SCB_SCSIID[0xff] SCB_LUN[0xff] SCB_TAG[0xff] 23 SCB_CONTROL[0x0] SCB_SCSIID[0xff] SCB_LUN[0xff] SCB_TAG[0xff] 24 SCB_CONTROL[0x0] SCB_SCSIID[0xff] SCB_LUN[0xff] SCB_TAG[0xff] 25 SCB_CONTROL[0x0] SCB_SCSIID[0xff] SCB_LUN[0xff] SCB_TAG[0xff] 26 SCB_CONTROL[0x0] SCB_SCSIID[0xff] SCB_LUN[0xff] SCB_TAG[0xff] 27 SCB_CONTROL[0x0] SCB_SCSIID[0xff] SCB_LUN[0xff] SCB_TAG[0xff] 28 SCB_CONTROL[0x0] SCB_SCSIID[0xff] SCB_LUN[0xff] SCB_TAG[0xff] 29 SCB_CONTROL[0x0] SCB_SCSIID[0xff] SCB_LUN[0xff] SCB_TAG[0xff] 30 SCB_CONTROL[0x0] SCB_SCSIID[0xff] SCB_LUN[0xff] SCB_TAG[0xff] 31 SCB_CONTROL[0x0] SCB_SCSIID[0xff] SCB_LUN[0xff] SCB_TAG[0xff] Pending list: 2 SCB_CONTROL[0x40] SCB_SCSIID[0x57] SCB_LUN[0x0] Kernel Free SCB list: 1 0 Untagged Q(5): 2 DevQ(0:5:0): 0 waiting DevQ(0:6:0): 0 waiting <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< Dump Card State Ends >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> (scsi1:A:5:0): Device is disconnected, re-queuing SCB Recovery code sleeping (scsi1:A:5:0): Abort Message Sent (scsi1:A:5:0): SCB 2 - Abort Completed.
