Hi Everyone,
I thought I'd forward this, in case there is someone interested in
working on SCSI tape support.
Andrew Hume wrote in the June 2005 ";login":
For outright bugs, two examples come to mind. The first is
the weakness of the FreeBSD SCSI system; we cannot reliably
write tapes on our FreeBSD nodes (although at least we get
told about the errors!). Again, the tape is slow (5MB/s) and
should not be an issue, and we can reliably write them on
Linux (on more or less identical hardware). Although this is
annoying, it turns out reading a tape works just fine, so
we're not too annoyed.
There's not further information in the article, nor is there a
related PR that I can see. Perhaps someone interested can contact
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> directly.
Cheers,
