Description of problem: Tape drives are not showing up after creating the plan. The tape drives that I have used so far are a DAT 72 USB and DAT 72 SCSI tape drive. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): HTS-5.0-31 How reproducible: Every time. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install HTS (R31) 2. Shut off server and then plug in the tape drive. 3. Turn on the tape drive and insert a tape. 4. Boot up Red Hat 5. 5. At the root command prompt type: ->hts server start 6. Then type: -> hts plan 7. Then type: -> hts print --report plan Actual results: After following the steps listed above a list of devices pop up but no tape drive shows up on the list. Expected results: Tape drive included in the plan list. Additional info:
the latest HTS is R32, please do the following steps: 1) Shut down the test machine and then plug in the tape drive; 2) Turn on the tape drive and insert a tape; 3) Boot RHEL5 Server; 4) after the system booted, run "rpm -e hts" to remove R31 first; 5) remove(please backup if necessary) all files under "/var/hts/" and "/var/hts/log/"; 6) install HTS R32; 7) run "hts plan"; 8) run "hts print --report plan" to see if the Tape drive is "planned"; If the Tape drive is still not in the "plan.xml" file, please : 9) run "hts certify --test info"; 10) run "hts submit"; 11) submit(attach) the result rpm here. the result rpm is under "/var/hts/" directory . Thanks
This seemed to fix the problem the tape drives are now showing up. If I notice anything else I will let you know. Thank you. -Keith (In reply to comment #1) > the latest HTS is R32, please do the following steps: > 1) Shut down the test machine and then plug in the tape drive; > 2) Turn on the tape drive and insert a tape; > 3) Boot RHEL5 Server; > 4) after the system booted, run "rpm -e hts" to remove R31 first; > 5) remove(please backup if necessary) all files under "/var/hts/" and > "/var/hts/log/"; > 6) install HTS R32; > 7) run "hts plan"; > 8) run "hts print --report plan" to see if the Tape drive is "planned"; > If the Tape drive is still not in the "plan.xml" file, please : > 9) run "hts certify --test info"; > 10) run "hts submit"; > 11) submit(attach) the result rpm here. > the result rpm is under "/var/hts/" directory . > Thanks
