Do drivers need to be installed and, if so, which ones
Description
It is unclear whether there is a need to
install drivers onto the system and more
help is required.
The required drivers do not appear to be
available.
Testing after installation
Remember that the system recognizes devices during boot-up. If you swap or connect a
product when your system is running, you will need to reboot the system. Rebooting the system
will reset devices and will often resolve problems. It is good practice to reboot every time you
add a driver or install firmware.
Caution Never power off the drive while a cartridge is still loaded or during a firmware upgrade.
The server does not reboot after installation
Possible reason
You have installed an additional SCSI host
bus adapter and its resources are clashing
with an existing adapter.
You have disconnected the power or SCSI
cable from the server's boot disk during the
drive installation process.
Further information
Detailed information specific to your system can be
found on the www.hp.com/go/connect web site.
For support on Windows operating systems, drivers
can be obtained from the HP StorageWorks Tape
CD-ROM or from www.hp.com/support. For
support on UNIX systems, see the UNIX Configuration
Guide on the HP StorageWorks Tape CD-ROM.
(Backup software that states support for
HP StorageWorks SDLT 600 tape drives also provides
the required drivers.)
Future drivers will be provided via the support web
site when they become available.
Recommended action
Remove the new host bus adapter and check the
server documentation.
Check that the cables to all devices are firmly
connected.
