DAT Drive not recognized

Tue Nov 9 02:50:50 GMT 2004

Hi all,  I'm trying to get a DAT drive working on a server.

Server is a Dell 2450 w/ PERC3/Si controller.  There are 4 Drives in RAID 5
and they are recognized.  Controller has been updated to version 2.8 build
6092 firmware. The 4 hard drives are on channels 0-3 and seen by bios and
FreeBSD as a RAID 5 container.  DAT drive is a Seagate STD2401LW (now
certance http://www.certance.com/products/dds-dat/dds-4/STD2401LW-S)

DAT is set with default jumpers (channel 6, parity on, termination power
off), switches are all on.  I also tried with switch 10 off ((Inquiry String
Switch (Switch 10)
Switch 10 is used to select the Vendor ID that the drive returns when
queried with a SCSI Inquiry command. When switch 10 is ON (the default
setting), the Vendor ID is "SEAGATE DAT." When switch 10 is OFF the Vendor
ID is "ARCHIVE Python." The "ARCHIVE Python" Vendor ID may be used by
independent software vendors to provide software compatibility with previous
Seagate DDS tape drives.)  The manual says that switches 5-8 are on for
Linux.  Drive had be reported to work under RH 7.2 but I did not see that
with my own eyes.

DAT Drive is recognized by the PERC bios at channel 6 with both of the above
strings from switch 10 positions.

Kernel is default GENERIC 5.3 and appears to have scbus, pass, and sa
drivers compiled in as per /usr/src/sys/i386/conf/GENERIC

Camcontrol devlist does not return anything.

What do I need to do to get the kernel to recognize the drive?  Any help is
greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Paul
