Fibre Channel LTO not recognized with OpenVMS 9.2-2 X86_64

Post by dvdwrite » Wed Aug 28, 2024 5:12 am

Hi,
I have problems to access a fibre channel lto drive.

The access of a fibre channel disk array works but the lto drive is not recognized.
I see the lto on the same fibre configuration as $2$mga0: on a rx2660.

I can see that the mkdriver.exe is responsible for the access.

In addition to my post here some output of the x86_64 OS:

$ ana/sys
SDA> fc show wtid
WTIDs (WWID Throttle IO Descriptors)
------------------------------------
| Conn Port Dev Cred Appr | QF Cred User Current
WTID Product ID Node WWID Port WWID | Cnt I/Os I/Os I/Os I/Os | Seen Avl Cap QF Alg
-------- ---------------- ------------------- ------------------- + ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- + ---- ---- ---- -------
82132BD0 Ultrium 5-SCSI 5001.10A0.0132.34D2 5001.10A0.0132.34D0 | 0001 0000 0000 0000 0000 | 0000 8000 0000 T/5000

This shows that the fibre part works but not the rest.

Any ideas what's wrong?

Have you asked sysman to configure the device? I too had a tape adventure with x86.

In the code block there shows me trying to attach.

mc sysman io auto/log

gives no additional devices.
