Connection to HP-UX (11.x)

The following procedures are for configuring an HP-UX operating system to use

native drivers with UDO jukeboxes.

Obtaining HP-UX patches

Your HP-UX system may require software patches to ensure that the standalone

UDO drive will install and operate correctly with your system. HP-UX versions

11.0, 11.11 and 11.23 require patches. To view the most up-to-date list of patch

requirements, visit

http://www.hp.com/ go/udo

. To download required patches,

go to

http://www.hp.com/ g o/ su pport

or refer to your HP-UX documentation for

patch locations.

Note: HP-UX versions 11.x provide limited native support for jukeboxes, including file

system support for rewritable media and a SCSI driver (schgr) for the jukebox

robotics.

Note: When using a third party application, HP recommends you consult with the

application vendor for configuration requirements and recommendations.

Installing the schgr driver

The schgr driver is an HP-UX native SCSI driver that allows commands to be

sent to a media changer.

1. Log on to the system as root.

2. Initialize SAM by typing sam at the command line.

Note: If you are not familiar with using SAM, consult your HP-UX documentation.

3. Select the following items from the menus that are displayed:

■ Kernel Configuration

■ Drivers

4. Scroll down to the entry “schgr”.
