I have a STK9310 Silo (ACSLS 6.0.1) with 16 mixed 9840 / T9840B drives.
Eight drives are already used by a datazone (server is a Tru64 5.1/ NetWorker 6.1.1) and I'm trying to configure the remaining 8 drives under another datazone.
Using jbconfig I've an error as riported below

# jbconfig

2) Install an Autodetected SCSI Jukebox.
3) Install an Autodetected NDMP SCSI Jukebox.
4) Install an SJI Jukebox.
5) Install an STL Silo.

There appears to be something incorrect about your jukebox
installation. Please consult your device's documentation
to help you troubleshoot your installation.
stl_open failed - unable to connect to ACSLS server acsls03 (stl_open error 2)
Would you like to configure another jukebox? (yes/no) no

I checked every log on ACSLS node and NetWorker server without find anything.

Anyone has an idea ?
 


Put the ACSLS server in the local host table of the backup server and do the same on the acsls server for the backup server. I think the script is trying to verify the exixtance of the acsls server and it may not be able to find it.

 
Good suggestion, but I already have done it. I don't use DNS so I'm used to check every time the local host table.
 
Have you started the mini_el & ssi daemons?

I believe that's necessary on UNIX to be able to communicate with ACSLS.
 
Previous suggestion was ok.

I put this section inside NetWorker startup script /sbin/rc3.d/S94NSRstartstop

# Set environment variables for Storage Tek silos

# SSI_HOSTNAME=acsls03
# export SSI_HOSTNAME
CSI_HOSTNAME=acsls03
export CSI_HOSTNAME
/usr/opt/networker/bin/mini_el &
/usr/opt/networker/bin/ssi &

where acsls03 is the nodename of the Storagetek Silo server.
