Where's my DAT tape??

[Guillermo Bautista]

Hello,

  I have a HP Proliant with a HP Surestore DAT drive, but the OS doesn't
seem
to recognize it at boot time.

  This machine has it's "onboard" UW-160 SCSI controller but since I also
had a
SmartArray 650 SCSI RAID controller for a RAID 5 configuration, I
deactivated in
the BIOS the UW-160 one, and now the machine is at a data center which is
far away, sigh!)

  What should I do/configure for the system to recognize the Surestore DAT
tape?
Should I go to the data center and enable de UW-SCSI controller? (no no
noooooo ;-) )
