Need help adding robot and drives to new NBU45 configuration.

[collective7]

Env: NetBackup 4.5 on Sun hardware running Solaris 9 with an IBM 3584 library with 18 LTO 2's.

sgscan can see all the drives.

I am trying to configure the robot library and tape drives with bpadm. I have added the library to media manager. The add drive configuration options only mention the following choices for tape drives. LTO's are not listed. Does anyone know wich of these options would suit for LTO2's?

Menu options:

1) 1/4" Cartridge (qscsi)
2) 1/2" Cartridge (hcart)
3) 1/2" Cartridge 2 (hcart2)
4) 1/2" Cartridge 3 (hcart3)
5) 4mm Cartridge (4mm)
6) 8mm Cartridge (8mm)
7) 8mm Cartridge 2 (8mm2)
8) 8mm Cartridge 3 (8mm3)
9) DLT Cartridge (dlt)
10) DLT Cartridge 2 (dlt2)
11) DLT Cartridge 3 (dlt3)
12) DTF Cartridge (dtf)
13) Optical Disk (odisk)

Enter Drive Type (1 - 13):


Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You will need to specify the library as a DLT library with the drives using and being 1/2" Cartridge (hcart)

TLD, not DLT for the library type. Use 1/2" cartridge (hcart) for LTO standard tapes and 1/2" cartridge 2 (hcart 2) for LTO 2's. There is no physical difference but it is easier for identification for your environment.
