What have you tried? What has happened so far? What software are you using to access the tape? If you pop a tape into it and try `mt status`, what do you get?

hi,
choogendyk i did try anything in linux box as i new to tape drives in linux i tried your command below is my result,it shows command not found do i need to install any drivers for my tape drive in rhel5 server plz help me to resolve this problem [root@server1 ~]# mt status bash: mt: command not found Thanks in Advance Jnreddy |
That's odd. Try `man mt` or `/bin/mt status`. I'm not a Red Hat user, so I have to rely on google. I found a couple of discussions with people asking where mt was on rhel5. Outside chance it's not installed (check `rpm -ql mt`)? Try installing it (`rpm -ivh mt-st-0.9b-2.2.2.x86_64` or alternative from list below).
According to Red Hat Network: mt-st-0.9b-2.2.2.x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux (v. 5 for 64-bit x86_64) mt-st-0.9b-2.2.2.i386 Red Hat Enterprise Linux (v. 5 for 32-bit x86) mt-st-0.9b-2.2.2.ia64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux (v. 5 for 64-bit Itanium) Those suggestions came from the following: http://linux.derkeiler.com/Mailing-L.../msg00180.html http://forums11.itrc.hp.com/service/...readId=1282808 |
