    the FCS2 and FSCSI errors are fibre channel errors..I just realized you say
    this tape is ultra-scsi attached.

    ??

    I have the drive terminated and set to ID 0. The drive is connected to an
    Ultra scsi
    port.
    I have loaded Atape ver 8.4.8
    Basically, after I run cfgmgr, the drive is not recognized and the
    following error
    message is displayed:

    IDENTIFIER TIMESTAMP T C RESOURCE_NAME DESCRIPTION
    825849BF 0625093804 T H fcs2 ADAPTER ERROR
    3074FEB7 0625093804 T H fscsi2 ADAPTER ERROR

    I know the cable is good since I have used it quite often.....

    It appears that this error message is coming from the fiber channel adapter
    during a "cfgmgr"

    You're right, this has nothing to do with the tape drive.....

    Soooo....the drive is not generating any errors...

    What now?

    fcs2 is a 6227 or 6228 style Fiber Channel adapter. I'm confused.

    Folks,

    I have been trying to install an LTO1 drive on a 6H1 and am running into a
    problem...

    I have the drive terminated and set to ID 0. The drive is connected to an
    Ultra scsi
    port.
    I have loaded Atape ver 8.4.8
    Basically, after I run cfgmgr, the drive is not recognized and the
    following error
    message is displayed:

    IDENTIFIER TIMESTAMP T C RESOURCE_NAME DESCRIPTION
    825849BF 0625093804 T H fcs2 ADAPTER ERROR
    3074FEB7 0625093804 T H fscsi2 ADAPTER ERROR

    I know the cable is good since I have used it quite often.....

    Is there something I am forgetting?

    Thanks!
