I have 2 UNIX boxes and I need to determine whether or not they possess the same tape drive. What is the hardware command to determine what type of tape drive is present? Thx in advance.
what flavor of UNIX?
IBM RS6000 - oslevel 5.1
Thanks
find out what the names of your tape devices are:
# lsdev -Cc tape
rmt0 Available 40-60-00-0,0 SCSI 4mm Tape Drive
Then you can query the ODM
# lscfg -vl rmt0
rmt0 U0.1-P1/Z1-A0 SCSI 4mm Tape Drive (20480 MB)
