<<I'm running MPE-iX 4.0 on an HP3000/917. The IODFAULT.PUB.SYS file
does not list the "HP7980S" drive. Is this drive supported at 4.0
with a patch, if so does anyone know the patch number?>>
If you don't find a patch, you can just splice the following lines into
the file:
{************** 1/2" Reel SCSI ******************}
HP7980S TAPE 24 5 0128 SCSI_TAPE2_DM LOGICAL_DEVICE_MANAGER 0010 &
JOB+DATA+INPUT+OUTPUT+AUTOREPLY NONE TAPE 0 DA 0 FALSE FALSE
HP7980SX TAPE 24 5 0128 SCSI_TAPE2_DM LOGICAL_DEVICE_MANAGER 0010
&
JOB+DATA+INPUT+OUTPUT+AUTOREPLY NONE TAPE 0 DA 0 FALSE FALSE
In our version (5.0 PowerPatch 4) they appear just after the section:
{******* COMP3480 Device ID is valid for all 3480 tape devices
*******}
COMP3480 TAPE 24 8 0128 SCSI_TAPE2_DM LOGICAL_DEVICE_MANAGER 0010
&
JOB+DATA+INPUT+OUTPUT+AUTOREPLY NONE TAPE 0 DA 0 FALSE FALSE
