Using a DLTtape Mini-Library
HP-UX operating system versions below 10.20 do not support SCSI-2 media changer
device commands. Therefore, you cannot use a DLT 2500, DLT 2500XT, DLT 2700,
DLT 2700XT, DLT 4500, or DLT 4700 in random access mode. You can access the
mini-library in sequential mode only.
Note:
At 10.20 and above, you can use the HP-UX mc media changer
commands to operate the mini-library robotics. Refer to HP-UX mc
man page for requirements and usage.
For a detailed description of these access modes, refer to the appropriate product manual
for your DLTtape mini-library. See
Table 1 on page 5
