Hi
I have some problems with a SCSI tape
My configuration
- board ADAPTEC AVA1505 Portbase 0x340 IRQ 10
-> Kernel 2.0.32 compiled with SCSI device "aha152x"
-> lilo.conf option: append="aha152x=0x340,10,7,1"
- Tape Streamer HP colorado T4000s
- OK at Boot time
=>
>aha152x: processing commandline: ok
>aha152x: BIOS test: passed, detected 1 controller(s)
>aha152x0: vital data: PORTBASE=0x340, IRQ=10, SCSI ID=7, >reconnect=enabled, parity=enabled, synchronous=disabled, delay=100, >extended translation=disabled
>aha152x: trying software interrupt, ok.
>scsi0 : Adaptec 152x SCSI driver; $Revision: 1.18 $
>scsi : 1 hosts.
> Vendor: HP Model: T4000s Rev: 1.06

It's now the problem
access at tape with "tar"
a) with this command line : "tar -cvf /dev/st0 -i -W /home"
-> Backup OK but at last file with -W option
ERROR
> st0:Error with sense data: EOM Current error st09:00 sense key
> illegal Request Additional sense indicates Command sequence error
and after few seconds
> tar : Read error on /dev/st0 : I/O error
unless "-W" option Backup OK but an "append" (-r option of "tar" )same
kind of error
"tar -tvf /dev/st0" ok only with first part of backup
same kind of error with "/dev/nst0 (mixer avec diff. commandes mt),
/dev/rmt0 "
It's seems that was a error occurs when write the END-FILe symbol of
archive on the tape or some things like that ...
I hope that you help me
Best regards
