Hi All ,
I attached a DLT tape drive to the scsi port
of the above machine . After an init at SRM
it repeatedly comes up :
Waiting for PKA0.7.0.1.0 to poll .
After which only the DVA , EWA and PKA
devices are visible . I tried every ID on the
tape drive , also terminated and not terminated
but to no avail . When I removed the tape drive
it seemed to come up OK but repeated show dev
shows random disk devices sometimes missing
sometimes not , even though I haven't done an
init in between . Probably a scsi bus failer
but why do the disks disappear when the tape
drive is attached to the port .
P.S. The tape drive is tested OK .
Thanking you ,
