I have installed an ATL L500 tape library with an DLT 7000 drive. I can
use the DLT drive with no problem, but I can't seem to get the library
robot to work under RedHat 6.2. I am not sure which device to use or
which driver to use for the loader/library. The host detects the SCSI
tape at /dev/st0, but there is nothing for the loader. Can anyone
suggest where to begin on this. Below is the output from dmesg for the
SCSI adapter. Thanks for any help.
