Title
We have a new install of SCO OpenServer 6.0 with a SCSI REV that BackupEDGE doesnot detect.
Keywords
SCO IOMEGA REV OpenServer 6 edge.autodetect DVD CD
Product Release(s)
02.00.0x 02.01.0x 02.02.0x
Operating System(s)
SCO Openserver 6.0x
Problem Description
We have a new install of SCO OpenServer 6.0 with a DVD, CD-ROM, or REV that BackupEDGE doesnot detect.
Cause
It appears there is an intermittent problem with OpenServer 6 and optical devices. It doesn't allow access to devices on cdrom0.
Solution
Once you've determined which device the device should be, place media in the drive and type:

dd if=/dev/rcdrom/cdrom0 bs=1024 count=1 of=/dev/null

Once this is done type:

/usr/lib/edge/bin/edge.autodetect

This should now detect the device properly.
