Has anyone seen this before? Im running SCO 5.0.5 on a Compaq Proliant ML370 rack with RAID 1 and a Compaq 20./40 DAT drive.
After a couple of weeks the dat decides its not going to eject the tape anymore.
Any hints on what processes might cause this or known faults /patches would be much appreciated,

TIA

If no process has hold of it (fuser /dev/rStp0) then it's hardware. Tony Lawrence

I was afraid you'd say that, thanks for the pointer, it is looking to be hardware as I couldn't find any redundant processes attached to it ;(

Glad these things have a good onsite warranty :) ***************************************
