Hi, all.
I've finally found some time to try and get a tape drive - Seagate STT3401A (now
Certance/Quantum) - working on a Dell SC440.
I've not used tapes before, found plenty on Google, but I cannot get anything to
work as documented.
Most of the commands seem to fail for me (OpenBSD 4.2 CD release with errata
patches on i386.)
For example, I insert the tape (Travan 40GB - 20GB/40GB - preformatted
cartridge), wait a few seconds, and then:
mt rewind
will log this (/var/log/messages):
/bsd: wdc_atapi_intr: warning: reading only 255 of 256 bytes
Or:
tar cvf /dev/nrst0 AFile.zip
Shows this on the console:
AFile.zip
tar: Failed write to archive volume: 1: Invalid argument
tar: Waiting for tape drive close to complete...done.
And this in /var/log/messages:
last message repeated 2 times
/bsd: st0(atapiscsi1:0:0): Check Condition (error 0x70) on opcode 0xa
/bsd: SENSE KEY: Illegal Request
/bsd: ASC/ASCQ: Illegal Function (Should 20 00, 24 00, or 26 00)
I've tried using dd; using /dev/nrst0; a different tape; etc. with much the same
output.
I've Googled for a couple of hours and I am none the wiser - is it something to
do with the tape drive not being a SCSI device (it appears to be ATAPI, and
therefore using the atapiscsi adapter?)
Am I doing something very basically wrong or is this just not going to work?
Thanks.
