IDE Colorado backup problems
« on: May 10, 2002, 08:35:47 PM »
Today I installed the SME 5.12 on a machine with a 5 GB HP Colorado IDE tape backup.

When I try to perform a timed backup, the Cron Deamon send the admin a mail saying that the tape isn't loaded.

dmesg confirms that the system has detected the drive:

"hdb: HP COLORADO 5GB, ATAPI TAPE drive"

Could you please give me a clue to what the problem is and how I can solve it. Thanks in advance. 8-)

No experiences with this device, what so ever? Is there anything I must clear up in my question?
