ggrider Posted April 15, 2003 Report Share Posted April 15, 2003 After installing 5.0, I am seeing 15 instances of my AIT drive with SCSI ID's of every number but the setting the drive is actually set to. I am able to backup to or restore from the drive. When doing so, however, the first attempt fails with a device busy error. When immediately trying the same procedure again, the process completes normally. What may be causing me to see my AIT drive listed 15 times in the device listing, except for the correct ID and is this leading to the device busy error I am receiving? Thanks for any help.

Mayoff Posted April 15, 2003 Report Share Posted April 15, 2003 What ID did you actually set the tape drive at? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ggrider Posted April 15, 2003 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2003 The AIT drive is part of a video editing system which utilizes an ATTO UL3D dual bus SCSI card. One bus takes care of a 4 drive bay with ID's 1-4. The tape drive is on the second bus with an ID of 7. All the SCSI devices show up properly in the system profiler.

ggrider Posted April 15, 2003 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2003 Aside from moving to the UL3D card from a UL2D card under OS9, the hardware worked perfectly for the past four years before moving to OSX and Retrospect v5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mayoff Posted April 15, 2003 Report Share Posted April 15, 2003 ID 7 is a reserved SCSI ID that you are not normally going to use. Please try an ID between 1 and 6, that will probably fix the problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
