Thank you to everyone who responded so quickly.
The general (if not unanimous) answer was mka* if it were on the first
bus, and mkb* if it were on the second scsi bus. Also, doing a 'show dev'
will usually tell you in the last column what the device's manufacturer info
is (Dec TLZ09).
Thank you all.
Original Question:
I am installing a TLZ09 on an alpha es40 running v4.0f of tru64 Unix.
After the device is installed, I do a 'show dev' at the hardware level to
see if its recognized, and this is where my question comes in. On the
other alpha systems, a cdrom is usually dka*, I don't remember what the
tape drives' device names were....
Would anyone know the device names of a tape drive, so I'll know when I
see it.
