Thank you,

It appears that the SCSI device has not been seen by the OS. Try grep -i scsi /var/log/boot.msg to see if it was probed. Is this an x86 machine with a SCSI adapter?

Or perhaps run as root: modprobe -t scsi * and see if a module gets loaded. If one does (lsmod) add it to the modules loaded on boot. -- Ken Schneider unix user since 1989 linux user since 1994 SuSE user since 1998 (5.2)

The adapter that I have is an on board adapter. The server is an HP Proliant DL 380 G3, and this server is certified by Suse. May be I have to change something on kernel.

I went to the HP website and noticed several Linux driver downloads for this product. Have you tried any of them? http://h18023.www1.hp.com/support/files/server/us/family/model/4706.html?locale=en_US&prodSeriesId=316529 http://h18023.www1.hp.com/support/files/server/us/family/model/4706.html?locale=en_US&prodSeriesId=316529

Question: When your system boots, is the tape drive seen by your SCSI adapter? You should see it in the boot process long before Linux starts to boot. The adapter should show you the drive and the ID it uses. If you don't see it there that might be a problem. Even if it's a tape library, the SCSI adapter should find the drive and ID. <<JAV>> ---------- Original Message ----------- From: Carla Cristina Alonzo Duclós To: suse-linux-e@suse.com Cc: expatriate Sent: Thu, 29 Apr 2004 09:47:44 -0300 Subject: Re: [SLE] DLT Tape Library instalation

It would help to know what your SCSI adapter is and what motherboard.
