BE2010 - make older HP24x6 Autoloader work
We have a old HP Autoloader DAT24x6. The device works fine using HP LTT. OS is W2008R2 (64)
Nevertheless, this device does not work under BE2010. The DAT drive itself is discovered and works by manually changing a tape.
But the changer device is not discovered. Starting BE services brings about 30 events about communication errors
I think the configuration is o.k. - the LUN of the tape is lower than the changer LUN, both devices are present in W2008 device manager. The changer is configured for random access not as stacker.
I know, this device is not listed in the hardware compatibility list, but I have seen this device working under earlier versions of BE.
Is there a workaround available ?
