HI, some weeks ago, I Installed a Tape Drive on VMWare, and create a Virtual Machine with CentOS 6.7.
cat /etc/redhat-release
CentOS release 6.7 (Final)
Linux xxxx 2.6.32-573.el6.x86_64
Initially could see information about tape.
tapeinfo -f /dev/st0
Product Type: Tape Drive
Vendor ID: 'HP '
Product ID: 'Ultrium 6-SCSI '
Revision: '353D'
Attached Changer API: No
SerialNumber: 'HUJ5314CPA'
MinBlock: 1
MaxBlock: 16777215
SCSI ID: 0
SCSI LUN: 0
Ready: yes
BufferedMode: yes
Medium Type: Not Loaded
Density Code: 0x5a
BlockSize: 0
DataCompEnabled: yes
DataCompCapable: yes
DataDeCompEnabled: yes
CompType: 0x1
DeCompType: 0x1
BOP: yes
Block Position: 0
ActivePartition: 0
EarlyWarningSize: 0
NumPartitions: 0
MaxPartitions: 3
in this moment I can execute the next comand
mt -f /dev/nst0 status
SCSI 2 tape drive:
File number=0, block number=0, partition=0.
Tape block size 0 bytes. Density code 0x5a (no translation).
Soft error count since last status=0
General status bits on (41010000):
BOT ONLINE IM_REP_EN
|cpio -ovH -O /dev/nst0
after I execute
cpio -itv -I /dev/nst0 and show thw next message
Found end of tape. Load next tape and press RETURN.
Now I load the tape, but don't discover nothing and execute the comand
mt -f /dev/nst0 status
but say
/dev/nst0: Device or resource busy
sometimes when I execute th same comand in the log appear
