This box is a Dell Poweredge 2600 running Debian/Sarge with kernel 2.6.8. The problem is with the tape: # tar cf /dev/st0 /lib/modules/2.6.8-1-686-smp/ # tar xfv /dev/st0 produces nothing or "Cannot allocate memory" After heavy googling I tried passing tar the block size explicitly with -b (for...

Our AIT2 HVD drives have been among the most reliable we have used. We have used them both with differential SCSI controllers as well as HVD fibre bridges, both with great success. In our test lab, where we have two permanent test servers that have Adaptec 39160 LVD host adapters, I cannot get...

Hi I have a problem with Veritas Netbackup BusinesServer 4.5 (MP6). One of the guys started a restore from tape using the java client, the problem is that he actually restored a file to a location that wasn't large enough for it. The restore obviously failed but in the client still says in...

Hi, I have a Tandberg SDLT600 drive and an Adaptec 29160 SCSI card on a win 2000 platform. I cannot get the SCSI card to recognise the SDLT drive. The SCSI ID is set correctly on the back of the drive at ID 5 and I am using a self terminating SCSI cable. I can swop the SDLT600 drive for a DAT...

I just purchased a Clariion FC5310 DPE with an additional 10 disk DAE. I have not been able to find any documentation that describes this thing. The SPs look different than the ones on the FC5300. I've done google, google groups, emc.com, and dell.com searches. Bunch of matches for FC4700, FC5300,...

The server is in a windows 2000 AD domain. Thanks...

Hi all... another new person to the world of file servers. Im looking into using an old computer, beefing it up a bit, and using it for a home office storage unit. Also, Im looking into the 'home media center' thing where wireless adapters that plug into stereos or tvs stream data off of...

I have a nice new server with 15,000RPM SCSI drives in a hardware RAID 5 configuration. I may be wrong, but I don't think it's performing properly at all. The question is, what's reasonable? When using large (500MB) files to swamp out cache effects, I'm getting roughly 12MB/sec (it varies quite...

I am performing a brick level back up of the MS Exhange mail boxes. It backs up sucessfully, but I cannot see how to restore from the brick level back up. Surely it can't be that difficult?!
