What to Do If hinv Does Not See the Tape Drive
Under certain circumstances, the drive may not show up in the hinv listing after you
connect the DLT2000XT tape drive to the host system. Some common causes for this
problem are listed in the first two columns of Table 5-1. If none of the solutions listed in
Table 6-1 are applicable, try the following procedures:
Confirm that the host system is running operating system release 5.3, 5.3 with XFS, 6.2,
or later. At the system prompt, enter
% uname -r
If the host is running an IRIX operating system release older than those listed, the system
will not recognize the DLT2000XT tape drive. Upgrade the host system to the appropriate
release. Contact your sales or service representative if a copy of the proper operating
system is not available.
Find out if the host sees any tape drives connected to the system by entering
% hinv -c tape
In the output, look for the newly installed DLT2000XT tape drive. If the tape drive or
stacker is not recognized, recheck all the solutions listed in the first two columns of
Table 6-1.
