Hello list. Using camcontrol, I cannot get freebsd 6.1-RC1 to recognize an attached tape drive. Is this normal? If the machine boots with the tape drive turned off, I cannot get the tape drive to be recognized after I turn the tape drive on. # camcontrol rescan 1 Re-scan of bus 1 was successful # camcontrol rescan all Re-scan of bus 0 was successful Re-scan of bus 1 was successful # camcontrol devlist -v scbus0 on asr0 bus 0: <ADAPTEC RAID-5 3B0A> at scbus0 target 0 lun 0 (da0,pass0) <SUPER GEM318 0> at scbus0 target 6 lun 0 (ses0,pass1) < > at scbus0 target -1 lun -1 () scbus1 on asr0 bus 1: < > at scbus1 target -1 lun -1 () scbus-1 on xpt0 bus 0: < > at scbus-1 target -1 lun -1 (xpt0) If the machine boots up while the tape drive is attached and powered up, the tape drive is recognized. # camcontrol devlist <ADAPTEC RAID-5 3B0A> at scbus0 target 0 lun 0 (da0,pass0) <SUPER GEM318 0> at scbus0 target 6 lun 0 (ses0,pass1) <HP Ultrium 2-SCSI S24D> at scbus1 target 6 lun 0 (sa0,pass2) Here are some more details about my setup. machine: - supermicro super server 6013P-8 with zero channel raid controller - SMP hardware, UP kernel with ASR_COMPAT - FreeBSD name 6.1-RC FreeBSD 6.1-RC #1: Fri Apr 21 16:09:23 MDT 2006 - Adaptec AIC-7902 Dual-Channel Ultra-320 Controller - Adaptec 2015S ZCR Card relevant dmesg data: asr0: <Adaptec Caching SCSI RAID> mem 0xf8300000-0xf83fffff,0xfb000000-0xfbffffff,0xfc000000-0xfdffffff irq 30 at device 3.0 on pci3 asr0: [GIANT-LOCKED] asr0: ADAPTEC 2015S FW Rev. 3B0A, 2 channel, 256 CCBs, Protocol I2O sa0 at asr0 bus 1 target 6 lun 0 sa0: <HP Ultrium 2-SCSI S24D> Removable Sequential Access SCSI-3 device ses0 at asr0 bus 0 target 6 lun 0 ses0: <SUPER GEM318 0> Fixed Processor SCSI-2 device ses0: SAF-TE Compliant Device da0 at asr0 bus 0 target 0 lun 0 da0: <ADAPTEC RAID-5 3B0A> Fixed Direct Access SCSI-2 device da0: Tagged Queueing Enabled da0: 70006MB (143372288 512 byte sectors: 255H 63S/T 8924C) When I power down and disconnect the tape drive /var/log/messages receives the following.

Granted, pass2 was pointing to sa0:asr0:1:6:0 and the device that is now attached is connected via asr0:1:0:0. adamu010# camcontrol rescan all Re-scan of bus 0 was successful Re-scan of bus 1 was successful # camcontrol devlist <ADAPTEC RAID-5 3B0A> at scbus0 target 0 lun 0 (da0,pass0) <SUPER GEM318 0> at scbus0 target 6 lun 0 (ses0,pass1) # camcontrol rescan 1:0:0 Re-scan of 1:0:0 was successful # camcontrol devlist <ADAPTEC RAID-5 3B0A> at scbus0 target 0 lun 0 (da0,pass0) <SUPER GEM318 0> at scbus0 target 6 lun 0 (ses0,pass1) # camcontrol reset 1 Reset of bus 1 was successful # camcontrol rescan 1 Re-scan of bus 1 was successful # camcontrol devlist 1 <ADAPTEC RAID-5 3B0A> at scbus0 target 0 lun 0 (da0,pass0) <SUPER GEM318 0> at scbus0 target 6 lun 0 (ses0,pass1) The drive documentation states that the drive's auto-termination is only in effect when the drive is powered on. Does that mean I have an unterminated bus when the tape drive is off? Perhaps the aic7902 auto-terminates scbus1? How does termination influence what camcontrol sees? The tape drive is not detected without a reboot. Despite the fine man page for camcontrol and several examples provided by google of other users using camcontrol to successfully reattach devices, I cannot do it. I assume I have done something wrong, like misunderstanding how scsi devices and/or termination function. Can anyone point out what I am doing wrong and/or tell me how to change tape drives without rebooting my box? Thank you for any help! Adam ps: Please CC me as I am not subscribed to this list. TIA!
