Re: udev and tape drives

Hi Kay,

The NetBackup device configuration wizard gives the error "No configuration 
device file found". I think it has to do with the new symlinks in /sys/class 
scsi_tape.

In the working configuration it has no symlinks under the scsi_tape directory, 
the entries are directories for nst* and st*.

In the not working configuration the entries are symlinks and this I think 
confuses NetBackup and cannot find the device configuration files. Is it 
possible to create rules to change it back to directories?

Regards,
Horst
