Title: Yosemite Backup 8.1 (New Tapeware)
Post by: jmvelez on October 20, 2005, 11:02:40 PM

I tested the new Yosemite Backup 8.1 on SME 7 beta 5 and it worked.  IDE needs the driver to loaded.  This version supports D2D  The UI is very different to Tapeware.  The drive I used is Sony AIT Turbo 2 80/208GB IDE

I'm sorry to sound stupid, but what driver needs to be loaded?

Thanks

You need load ide-scsi and sg.  Check Darrell May contribution for 5.6.  I did it manually for testing and the server is deleted.  

The D.Mays How to add a SCSI

in the /etc/rc.local add

insmod ide-scsi
insmod sg

you need to add at the start to load the yosemite software.  It is not the same file name and location for the old Tapeware software.  Next week I will prepare a server with SME 7 to repeat the install.

Thank You

Thanks much!

I had already found that out, but I'm sure this will help others.  

I, indeed, needed to load the sg module.  ide_scsi (on SME 7) was already loaded.  I added it to rc.local with the line 'modprobe sg'.  There's probably a better way...

I will be testing the new Yosemite Backup 8.1 shortly.

Thanks again,

G

Sonoracomm,
Would you mind reporting ths to the Smeserver sourceforge bug tracker?  It seems to be first off a problem that the tape drive is not detected.  The sg module should be loaded automatically.
