Exabyte Drive Not Recognized - Please Help!

echarnley
Not applicable
I am running Backup Exec 10D on a new server installation.  We have an Exabyte VXA-2 DAT drive installed.  Backup Exec will see the device when I install the Veritas drivers, but the drive will never show up under devices after this.  Windows sees the drive in device manager.  I have uninstalled and reinstalled the drivers multiple times, but it still never shows up in Backup Exec.

I have checked the hardware compatibility list and this drive is supported.

The drive is attached via SCSI to an LSI Logic PCI-X Ultra320 SCSI Host Adapter.

Here are some of the contents of the adamm.log file (since I cannot exceed 2000 characters in this post I will only post the first part that contains some of the errors):

Any help would be greatly appreciated.  I have tried everything I can think of and the drive is still not recognized in Backup Exec.

Thanks in advance,
