Hi all! I posted this to 'questions' already but I reckon this place is more appropriate. My problem is that I'm trying to get a HP StorageWorks DAT 72i tape drive running in a COMPAQ Proliant ML370 (Rev. P17). The integrated SCSI controller appears in the dmesg output like this: ida0: <Compaq Integrated Array controller> port 0x2000-0x20ff mem 0xc4000000-0xc4ffffff,0xc5000000-0xc5ffffff irq 15 at device 1.0 on pci0 ida0: drives=3D1 firm_rev=3D1.42 The hot-plug drive cage is connected to internal SCSI port 2 of the mainboard and contains 2 SCSI drives mirrored as one logical drive which is detected like this: idad0: <Compaq Logical Drive> on ida0 idad0: 43365MB (88813440 sectors), blocksize=3D512 To get things going I connected the tape drive to the internal SCSI port 1 of the motherboard. The tape drive got detected by the system bios but there was nothing to see in the dmesg output. I then added an Adaptec 19160 SCSI adapter and connected the tape drive to it. Success! The tape drive got detected as 'sa0' as expected hours before. Does anyone have an idea what the problem with the onboard SCSI port could be? Stephan.
