Hi all,

I have a Dell server with onboard dual-channel SCSI/RAID adapter. I am trying to connect an external tape drive (Dell PowerVault 100T)to this machine. What I did was I put an Adaptec 2940U2W adapter on one of the PCI slot and connected the tape drive to this Adaptec card. Here is my question. When I ran "mkdev tape", what should I enter for my SCSI host adapter/SCSI Bus?

This is the result I got when I did "sconf -v": Stp blad 0 0 2 0

If I use SCSI host adapter 0, SCSI bus 0, ID 2 and LUN 0 and when I do "tape status", I got this:
status:
soft errors: 0
hard errors:0
underruns:0

Tape rewind will give me "unable to do "rewind" command on '/dev/xct0': I/O error.


Thanks.
