Donald,
Do you have the latest tape configuration files on your NetApp? Run a \
"storage show tape supported" on the filer and check. I ran a quick check on mine and \
don't see any LTO5 drives listed as supported (OnTap 7.3.1.1).
Check NOW for updated "tape_config" files. (NOW seems to be broken \
for me right now.) You can copy the new tape_config files onto the filer and it \
should pick them up. You may have to rescan your tape buses to recognize them.
Bryan
I have some new LTO5 drives and 2 of 4 of my netapps won't show the drive serial \
numbers. I have checked switch ports, os levels, hba model and firmware. They are \
all exactly the same. I am connected to a brocade switch and have the drives zoned \
properly. The netapps see the drives but if I run storage show tape on the nas it \
has a generic serial number instead of the serial number of the drive. This is \
preventing me adding these new drives. Has anyone seen this?
