We have a 7980S magreel tape device that is not responding--that is, we put the reel tape in, but it is not coming online. Sysgen gives this: io> ldev 15 LDEV: 15 DEVNAME: OUTDEV: 0 MODE: R ID: HP7980S RSIZE: 128 DEVTYPE: TAPE PATH: 0/28/0.2.0 MPETYPE: 24 MPESUBTYPE: 5 CLASS: TAPE I'm not sure if this is helpful, but I also show that a user is logged into the system using ldev 15: JOB# STATE DEV INTRODUCED Q PROGRAM LOGON #S1619 EXEC 15 12:35P QUICK SANDY,USER.AIH,PUB One last thing. SHOWDEV TAPE does not list the device: showdev tape LDEV AVAIL OWNERSHIP VOLID DEN ASSOCIATION 51 AVAIL 14 AVAIL 7 AVAIL 8 AVAIL 9 AVAIL 52 AVAIL Any suggestions as to what we can do to uncover the problem of the disappearing tape drive? * To join/leave the list, search archives, change list settings, * * etc., please visit http://raven.utc.edu/archives/hp3000-l.html *
