Problems with SCSI tape rewind / verify on 2.4.29
From: Mark Yeatman
Date: Wed Mar 02 2005 - 06:20:59 EST
Hi
Never had to log a bug before, hope this is correctly done.
Thanks
Mark
Detail....
[1.] One line summary of the problem:
SCSI tape drive is refusing to rewind after backup to allow verify and
causing illegal seek error
[2.] Full description of the problem/report:
On backup the tape drive is reporting the following error and failing
it's backups.
tar: /dev/st0: Warning: Cannot seek: Illegal seek
I have traced this back to failing at an upgrade of the kernel to 2.4.29
on Feb 8th. The backups have not worked since. Replacement Drives have
been tried and cables to no avail. I noticed in the the changelog that a
patch by Solar Designer to the Scsi tape return code had been made.
Solar Designer:
o Fix SCSI tape driver return code
The tape appears to back up correctly but will not verify.
[3.] Keywords (i.e., modules, networking, kernel):
Solar Designer, Tape, Scsi, 2.4.29
[4.] Kernel version (from /proc/version):
Linux version 2.4.29-vs1.2.10 (root@raptor) (gcc version 3.2.3) #1 SMP
Tue Feb 8 15:55:58 UTC 2005
[5.] Output of Oops.. message (if applicable) with symbolic information
resolved (see Documentation/oops-tracing.txt)
[6.] A small shell script or example program which triggers the
problem (if possible)
tar cf /dev/st0 -W -P --exclude proc --exclude dev / 1>>
/var/log/backup.log 2>>/var/log/backup.log
