Hi
Has anybody actaully got a Dell 132 Tape Lib that uses native FC to work on
AIX 5.1?
Setup
RS6000 - AIX 5.1 <-> 6228 HBA (firmware up-to-date) <-----> Dell/EMC DS-8G
(2Gbps Fibre switch) <---> Dell 132T Tape Lib with Native Fibre Channel
Problem - No robotic AIX driver, Dell doesn't seem to know or comprehend
much about AIX 5.1 device drivers.
Not a Problem - Can use the tape drives by placing tapes in them
independent of AIX driving the robot.
It may be a Storage Network Connector - SNC (SCSI/FC bridge) config'
issue?
Regards
Jim McDonald
