This is an update on my query about problems installing
a TSZ07 on an AlphaServer 400
Roger suggested recreating the device (no effect). The
'scu show edt' and ´file´ output follows :
# scu show edt

CSI LUN #0) errors = 0/4 offline
If you set the drive as online :
# file /dev/nrmt0h
/dev/nrmt0h: character special (9/17411)
As suggested by Alan from Compaq, following is a typical entry
from the error log output ('dia -o full'). There is some ugly
stuff here, like a Hard Error on routine 'ctape_density_set' ,
and an "Illegal request or CDB parameter". What do you think ?
