I tried to run a SIPB backup (using 3.4a backup software) on whip (an
ops SunOS machine with a DLT drive).  After overcoming several
problems, I ran into the following:

Note: Operation is performed on cell sipb.mit.edu
Starting Tape Coordinator: Port offset 0   Debug level 2   Aix Scsi flag: 0
Token expires: Wed Apr  9 16:08:17 1997


but backup said:
backup> backup: server or network not responding ; Can't access tape coordinator at port 0


Does anyone (especially sipb-afs types) have a clue.  Unfortunately
this is not a machine we can give non-ops people access to.

At this point, the backup is not happening.
