Installing the Software Drivers Configuring the SCSI ID for SCO OpenServer In the preconfigured kernel used to install SCO OpenServer, the following SCSI IDs are automatically set: • Disk = 0 • Tape = 2 • CD-ROM = 5 To determine the SCSI ID of the new tape drive (if not known): 1. Run System Configuration and look under "Review or Modify Hardware Settings," then "View and Edit Details." The values reported for controller number, target ID, LUN, and bus number will be used during mkdev tape command. 2. Boot the computer to single user mode and run the mkdev tape command. 3. Remove the default tape device from controller 0, ID 2. 4. Add the new tape drive to the configuration. 5. Relink the kernel and reboot the computer to multi-user mode. 6. Run the hwconfig command to ensure the new tape configuration is correct. The information will appear in a line such as: %tape - - - type= S ha=0 id=2 lun=0 ht=... In the above example, "id=2" indicates that the SCSI ID is 2. See the Getting Started booklet that came with the AIT tape drive for more information on setting the SCSI ID. IMPORTANT: The SCO OpenServer install kernel will only communicate with the first SCSI controller in the system. Remove the generic tape at ID2, then add the correct tape driver using correct ID, bus, and LUN values. SCO UnixWare The drivers required to support Compaq SCSI tape drives under SCO UNIX are the SCO SCSI tape (stp) driver and an appropriate SCSI controller driver. The stp driver is built into SCO UNIX. Consult the SCO System Administrator's Guide for directions on configuring the SCSI tape driver. 2-6 AIT Drive Reference Guide

Installing the Software Drivers
Configuring the SCSI ID for SCO OpenServer
In the preconfigured kernel used to install SCO OpenServer, the following SCSI IDs
are automatically set:
•
Disk = 0
•
Tape = 2
•
CD-ROM = 5
To determine the SCSI ID of the new tape drive (if not known):
1.
Run System Configuration and look under “Review or Modify Hardware
Settings,” then “View and Edit Details.” The values reported for controller
number, target ID, LUN, and bus number will be used during
mkdev tape
command.
2.
Boot the computer to single user mode and run the
mkdev tape
command.
3.
Remove the default tape device from controller 0, ID 2.
4.
Add the new tape drive to the configuration.
5.
Relink the kernel and reboot the computer to multi-user mode.
6.
Run the
hwconfig
command to ensure the new tape configuration is correct.
The information will appear in a line such as:
%tape - - - type= S ha=0 id=2 lun=0 ht=...
In the above example, “id=2” indicates that the SCSI ID is 2.
See the
Getting Started
booklet that came with the AIT tape drive for more
information on setting the SCSI ID.
IMPORTANT:
The SCO OpenServer install kernel will only communicate with the first SCSI
controller in the system. Remove the generic tape at ID2, then add the correct tape driver using
correct ID, bus, and LUN values.
SCO UnixWare
The drivers required to support Compaq SCSI tape drives under SCO UNIX are the
SCO SCSI tape (
stp
) driver and an appropriate SCSI controller driver. The
stp
driver
is built into SCO UNIX. Consult the SCO System Administrator's Guide for directions
on configuring the SCSI tape driver.
