iXOS-JUKEMAN 2.2 User Manual Pre.12/9752
With the following you can find out which IDs and LUNs are occupied by
which devices:
inquiry /dev/iXOS_SCSI{0,1,2,3,4}/{0,1,2,3,4,5,6},0
IDs and LUNs that are not used return “SCSI-Error in 00 - TEST
UNIT READY”)
3.4.3 Serial lines
For several jukebox types, the robot is controlled through a serial line,
which allows you to save a SCSI ID. For the NSM Mercury and Satellite
jukebox, the serial interface allows the software to fully exploit the fea-
tures of the jukebox and its ability to execute several movements in differ-
ent states simultaneously. iXOS-JUKEMAN uses this parallel capability;
even under high load the server can satisfy 14 client requests per minute
for different CDs in a single Mercury or Satellite. Moreover, you can con-
nect 16 NSM jukeboxes to a single serial line and all will be able to move
simultaneously.
Each serial line is represented in the file system by a name specific to the
operating system. The first two serial lines are:
AIX: /dev/tty0 /dev/tty1
DEC UNIX: /dev/tty00 /dev/tty01
HP-UX 10.*: /dev/tty0p0 /dev/tty1p0 oder
/dev/tty0p1 (je nach
Rechnermodell)
IRIX: /dev/ttyd1 /dev/ttyd2
NT com1: com2:
Solaris: /dev/ttya /dev/ttyb
For IRIX, also see the output of man serial.
For AIX, special serial cables that are required are available from IBM.
The messages “alarm clock during tty_open” and
“open(/dev/tty1) timed out” in the log file indicate an incorrect se-
rial cable.
The following section provides you with details of device description files
for server set-up. These files are needed to access the connected devices
