Hi All
I am getting the same symptoms as Jon Earle, regarding using vdump. I have
been trying to backup an 800 5/400 for some time now and get the same
message Jon does, i.e..
vdump: unable to write to device </dev/nrmt0h>; [5] I/O error
The server was built in January from scratch with 40.d and the most recent
patches we had at the time. The tape drive in our case being a TZ87N. I have
been through the same series of test, new tape drive mechanism, new cable
new terminator, and new scsi card. All to no avail.
I am now working with the Compaq engineers here to try to sort it out. I
will keep you posted with any information I get.
