Hello,
The host is Debian Linux 4. The guest is Windows Server 2003 Standard. The tape drive is a scsi DLT TH5BA-YF.
The host recoginzes the drive fine. I ran a ' cat /proc/scsi/scsi ' and received the following output:
Attached devices:
Host: scsi0 Channel: 00 Id: 00 Lun: 00
Vendor: Adaptec Model: TamStage Rev: V1.0
Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 02
Host: scsi1 Channel: 00 Id: 05 Lun: 00
Vendor: Quantum Model: DLT4000 Rev: D991
Type: Sequential-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 02
I added a generic SCSI device to the guest. I specified /dev/st0 as the physical SCSI device to connect to. I set the Virtual SCSI Device Node to 1:5.
When I power on the guest os, I receive the following error:
"Virtual device scsi1:5: Read-only file system. The virtual device may not be configured to use the Linux Generic SCSI driver (typically by using a /dev/sg* host device). Please see the product documentation for more information.
Virtual device scsi1:5 will start disconnected."
Any Ideas?
