on the standard console during the backup. Unless there is a real
need to see the filenames as they are backed up we suggest not
using the –v option. For commands that use density and tape size
settings the tape density is 124,000 bpi and the tape length is 1800

Configuring for SCO Open Server 5.0.x
Finding existing SCSI controllers and devices
The files /usr/adm/hwconfig and /var/adm/messages list the devices found
during boot up of Open Server. The current SCSI controllers can be found
using the command:
grep adapter /usr/adm/hwconfig
which will produce and out similar to:
%adapter 0x6400 – 0x64FF 11 type=alad ha=0 bus=0 id=7
fts=st0.
The current tape drives can be found using the command:
grep tape /usr/adm/hwconfig
which will produce and out similar to:
%tape type=S ha=0 id=6 lun=0 bus=0 ht=alad
The information above shows that an Adaptec SCSI controller is installed
(
alad
) and a SCSI tape drive (
type=S
) is installed as target id 6. SCSI ID
#7 is almost always dedicated to the SCSI controller. Never configure your
target device for ID 7 unless you are absolutely sure that the controller is
not addressed for ID 7. See figure 1 to view how to set the SCSI ID
address jumpers for the Viper 200.
Configuring the Viper 200 with mkdev
Once connected to the system, installation of the drive is carried out using
the following command:
mkdev tape
