To determine the SCSI ID of the new tape drive (if not known):
1. Run System Configuration and look under "Review or Modify Hardware
Settings," then "View and Edit Details." The values reported for controller
number, target ID, LUN, and bus number will be used during mkdev tape.
2. Boot the computer to single user mode and run the
3. Remove the default tape device from controller O, ID 2.
4. Add the new tape drive to the configuration.
5. Relink the kernel and reboot the computer to multi-user mode.
6. Run the command to ensure the new tape configuration is correct.
hwconfig
The information will appear in a line such as:
%tape - - - type= S ha=0 id=2 lun=0 ht= ...
In the above example, "id=2" indicates that the SCSI ID is 2.
See the section "Setting the SCSI ID" in Chapter 2 for more information on setting
the SCSI ID.
IMPORTANT: SCO OpenServer's install kernel will only communicate with the first SCSI
controller in the system. Remove the generic tape at ID2, then add the correct tape driver
using correct ID, bus, and LUN values.
The drivers required to support Compaq SCSI tape drives under SCO UNIX are the
SCO SCSI tape (stp) driver and an appropriate SCSI controller driver. The stp
driver is built into SCO UNIX. Consult the SCO System Administrator's Guide for
directions on how to configure the SCSI tape driver.
The table below describes the drivers required to support current Compaq SCSI
controllers.
