How to connect a HP 660ex with HP C1113J drives to a Sun?

Hello Managers,

 i got only one reply to my problem. And it seems that it is the only

practical solution, which is more flexlible as others.

The way as it is described in Legato documentation doesn't work, because

"hpflip" doesn't support HP C1113J drives (important is "J"). With a

hexedit is it possible to "support" "J" drives with hpflip. After this

all drives are seen from OS. Another problem is now to support

1024bytes/sector from Solaris.

I use HP's 2.6GB MOD drive on Sun Ultra-10 Sol 2.6, with drivers from

Tracer

technologies.

Hello Managers,

 we are trying to connect a HP 660ex (Optical Library with 6 HP C1113J

drives and 1024byes/sec

MOD-disks) to a Sun E450. The combination should be used as Legato

Networker Server with a HSM Modul.

 At OBP level a devices and library control device are seen, but at

SunOS 5.6 we can't see the devices.

We found that there is a special device driver from Legato (op 1.0 -

only for 2.4 and 2.5 NOT 2.6 and

upper) but we found NO information for Solaris 2.6.

 Can you help?

Thank you

Franz Heinrich
