Hi ,
I have wrtitten a C program that issues USCSICMD ioctl call to the tape devices attached on solaris sparc 10. I was able to get the required information from all SCSI tape devices attached using the utility. But, whenever it is run on FC attached tape drives , the program returns an error saying "Inappropriate ioctl for device".
bash-2.05# inquiry /devices/pci@1f,4000/fibre-channel@2/fp@0,0:devctl
inquiry: /devices/pci@1f,4000/fibre-channel@2/fp@0,0:devctl: scsi inquiry failed: Inappropriate ioctl for device
Is it possible to make an USCSICMD ioctl on FC attached tape devices ?. Can someone please provide an example if possible.
Thanks,
Naveen
