红旗Linux下使用HP MSL 6060磁带库

发布时间:2008-01-16 11:09:45来源:红联作者:compat
硬件:
服务器:Dell PowerEdge 6650

HBA卡:Qlogic 2312

软件:
OS:RedFlag Linux DC Server 4.1 SP3 x86

mtx:mtx-1.2.18-1.i386.rpm

HBA卡驱动:

(SP1系统核心默认用的qla驱动为7.02,只要qla驱动高于或者等于7.06都可以识别到机械手)

qla2x00-7.07.06-dc4.1-sp3-ia32.tgz (邮件附件驱动包)

几点需要注意:
1.系统能否识别磁带库的机械手,主要取决于HBA的驱动;若通过HBA能够识别到磁带库的驱动器(st0)设备,而不能识别机械手,可以通过更新HBA驱动解决(HBA驱动建议用磁带库厂家提供的)

2.使用mtx作磁带库操作建议会阅读MAN文档

红旗Linux使用MSL 6000磁带库操作步骤如下:
一.更新qla驱动

1. 确认系统核心:
uname -r

2.4.21-47.22AXsmp

此显示的系统版本号为RedFlag DC Server 4.1 SP3

RedFlag DC Server 4.1 标准版,核心版本为:2.4.21-9.30

RedFlag DC Server 4.1 SP3,核心版本为:2.4.21-47.22

2. 确认QLA驱动版本型号
cat /proc/scsi/qla2300/2或者3,文件头会显示QLA Driver version

QLogic PCI to Fibre Channel Host Adapter for QLA2340 :

Firmware version: 3.03.19, Driver version 7.07.0

3.更新驱动
tar zxvf qla2x00-7.07.06-dc4.1-sp3-ia32.tgz -C /

rmmod qla2300

depmod -a

cd /lib/modules/`uname-r `/kernel/drivers/scsi

modprobe qla2300

dmesg | grep -B 10 -A 10 st0

dmesg | grep -B 10 -A 10 sg0

检测是否有st及sg设备挂载的信息,如

[1] 若系统能够识别出机械手,在cat /proc/scsi/scsi中会显示出以下信息,

[2] Model信息为磁带库型号:MSL 6000 series

[3] Type信息为Medium Changer,这个type的信息无论是HP磁带库或者IBM磁带库都为此信息

[4] 请记住cat /proc/scsi/sci信息中的“Host: scsi3 Channel: 00 Id: 00 Lun: 00”,可以以此识别系统上真正的机械手挂载点

详细的/proc/scsi/scsi信息

cat /proc/scsi/scsi

Host: scsi3 Channel: 00 Id: 00 Lun: 00

Vendor: HP Model: MSL6000 Series Rev: 0430

Type: Medium Changer ANSI SCSI revision: 02

Vendor: HP Model: Ultrium 2-SCSI Rev: F43W

Type: Sequential-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 03

Host: scsi3 Channel: 00 Id: 00 Lun: 03

Vendor: HP Model: Ultrium 2-SCSI Rev: F43W

Type: Sequential-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 03

Host: scsi3 Channel: 00 Id: 00 Lun: 05

Vendor: HP Model: NS E1200-160 Rev: 5669

Type: Unknown ANSI SCSI revision: 0

dmesg信息

st: Version 20040102, bufsize 32768, max init. bufs 4, s/g segs 16

Attached scsi tape st0 at scsi3, channel 0, id 0, lun 1

Attached scsi tape st1 at scsi3, channel 0, id 0, lun 2

Attached scsi tape st2 at scsi3, channel 0, id 0, lun 3

Attached scsi tape st3 at scsi3, channel 0, id 0, lun 4

Attached scsi generic sg1 at scsi1, channel 4, id 6, lun 0, type 3

Attached scsi generic sg42 at scsi3, channel 0, id 0, lun 0, type 8

Attached scsi generic sg47 at scsi3, channel 0, id 0, lun 5, type 1

note:一般磁带库有四个驱动器(st),一个机械手(sg),N多个slot(也就是放磁带的插槽)

[1] 从dmesg信息显示驱动器已(st[0-3])已经识别

[2] 从dmesg信息显示有三个机械手,这里就有问题,需要确认哪一个是真正的机械手



从cat /proc/scsi/scsi和dmesg的信息可以判断出哪个是真正的机械手

Host: scsi3 Channel: 00 Id: 00 Lun: 00

Vendor: HP Model: MSL6000 Series Rev: 0430

Attached scsi generic sg1 at scsi1, channel 4, id 6, lun 0, type 3

Attached scsi generic sg42 at scsi3, channel 0, id 0, lun 0, type 8

Attached scsi generic sg47 at scsi3, channel 0, id 0, lun 5, type 1



很明显,从host、channel、id、lun的设备号可以分析得出机械手是挂载在sg42上



二. 磁带库操作

1. 使用mtx包,主要用于控制机械手作导带换带、连接slot(插槽)到driver(驱动器)操作
红旗Linux DC Server 4.1有自带mtx-1.2.18-1.i386.rpm安装包,在第一张光盘,安装完之后,会在/usr/sbin/mtx

[1] mtx作检查磁带库状态操作



[root@wylonwong scsidev]#mtx -f /dev/sg42 status

从以上信息显示4个驱动器(driver)全为空,有60个slot,其中有磁带的slot显示为Full,那么我们可以做将slot中的磁带放到驱动器中



[2] 放带操作

命令格式为mtx -f 机械手设备号 slot号 driver号

[root@wylonwong scsidev]#mtx -f /dev/sg42 load 56 0



[3] 拨带操作

[root@wylonwong scsidev]#mtx -f /dev/sg42 unload 56 0



除了以上简单操作之外,还可以实现将slot移位,如将原有的slot 56的磁带移动到50,这只是逻辑上的移动;

更详细的操作请查阅man mtx

三. 重做核心

加载QLA驱动之后,必须重启系统测试QLA驱动是否加载成功,重启之后再检查磁带机的驱动器(st)和机械手(sg)是否识别到,若识别到,一切OK

[1] 备份原先操作核心

cp -a /boot/initrd-`uname -r`.img /boot/initrd-`uname -r`-`date +%Y%m%d`.img

[2] 重做核心命令:

mkinitrd -f /boot/initrd-`uname -r`.img `uname -r`
