My unit's firmware: library 05.03, tape d22h, shows the device as set to
random mode. But mtx -f /dev/st0 status gives an error that google says
the device is in sequential mode. dmesg|grep -i hp does reflect CentOS
thinks the device is a sequential unit.
I've tried this with Fedora 8, too, and both show the same, so it is
either an issue with CentOS/Fedora RPMs, or the version of MTX?
I'm going to try a simple install of Ubuntu next and see if there is any
difference.
Is this a bug with the firmware, or with my setup?
I have rebooted the tape drive and machine several times.
I have the drive connected to an Adaptec 29160.
I have another identical drive on another system, with a library firmware
of d21h, tape firmware 04.04, and that works perfectly with mtx, though it
is connected to a different SCSI card.
Thanks for any help/insights.
Scott
