A 'camcontrol rescan -v' makes it accessible again. Here's what I did: # chio status -v picker 0: voltag: <:0> slot 0: voltag: <:0> [..snip..] slot 57: voltag: <000026L3:0> portal 0: voltag: <000024L3:0> portal 1: voltag: <000025L3:0> drive 0: voltag: <000027L3:0> drive 1: voltag: <:0> # chio move drive 0 slot 56 (takes some time as expected) # chio move slot 12 drive 0 (returns instantly, and I see this in /var/log/messages: isp0: command timed out for 0.132.0) # chio status -v chio: /dev/ch0: CHIOGSTATUS: Input/output error (I try it a few more times, same issue) Then, I do: # camcontrol devlist -v scbus0 on isp0 bus 0: [..snip other devices..] at scbus0 target 132 lun 0 (ch0,pass6) at scbus0 target 133 lun 0 (sa0,pass7) at scbus0 target 134 lun 0 (sa1,pass8) [..snip other devices..] < > at scbus0 target -1 lun -1 () scbus1 on isp1 bus 0: < > at scbus1 target -1 lun -1 () scbus-1 on xpt0 bus 0: < > at scbus-1 target -1 lun -1 (xpt0) Now I can move tapes around again just fine. Any ideas?
