DISTRIBUTION: Exabyte Medium Changer Device Driver
sol2_4c1_3u.tar.Z Compressed tar file
sol2_4c1_3u.tar.gz GNUzip'ed tar file
CONTENTS:
LICENSE Exabyte license agreement.
README This file.
solchgr.pkg Exabyte medium changer device driver package.
EXTRACTION:
Download the driver package file, copy it to a temporary directory and
uncompress using the appropriate uncompression program. Then install
using the solaris pkgadd program.
# cp sol2_4c1_3u.tar.Z /tmp
# cd /tmp
# zcat sol2_4c1_3u.tar.Z | tar xf -
or
# cp sol2_4c1_3u.tar.gz /tmp
# cd /tmp
# gunzip sol2_4c1_3u.tar.Z
# tar xf sol2_4c1_3u.tar
INSTALLATION:
Install and configure your medium changer device, as described in
the device's user installation manual. Failure to properly install
the device will cause the driver installation to fail.
Check for previously installed versions of this package.
# pkginfo | grep EXB
Remove previously installed versions:
(execute as root)
# pkgrm [ pkginst1 [ pkginst2 ]...]
If you manually installed a previous release of this driver, you
will need to manually uninstall it (i.e., unload the driver, and
remove any associated files). The pkgadd installation scripts
provided with this release will attempt to clean up after earlier
releases, however it cannot predict what directories you may have
installed to.
Install new release:
(execute as root)
# cd to directory containing un-tar'ed distribution (/tmp)
# pkgadd -d `pwd`/solchgr.pkg
Shutdown the system and perform a reconfiguration-boot.
# /usr/sbin/shutdown -y -g0 -i0
ok> boot -r
For additional information, refer to the chgr(7), chgrio(7), and
chs(1) man pages (placed in /usr/share/man directory tree during
installation). Verify that your MANPATH environment variable
includes this directory.
The following files and directories are created during package
installation:
/kernel/drv/chgr
/kernel/drv/chgr.conf
/usr/include/sys/chgrio.h
/usr/include/sys/scsi/targets/chgrdef.h
/usr/share/man/man1/chs.1

NOTES:
This distribution is part of a current development project, and as
such may be subject to change. Although preliminary testing indicated
the driver to be stable and functional, it has not been rigorously
tested. Further development and testing will continue. Comments,
suggestions, and constructive feedback are welcome and encouraged.

DISCLAIMER:
CAVEATS AND CONSTRAINTS:
At least one medium changer device must be installed on the system
that this driver is being installed on. If the medium changer device
is not properly attached and configured, or not powered on, then the
driver installation program will fail with a message like:
## Executing postinstall script.
drvconfig: System call 'modctl_modconfig' failed: No such device or
Address
Warning: Driver (chgr) configuration failed. System could not install
driver.
pkgadd: ERROR: postinstall script did not complete successfully
Installation of <EXBTchgr> partially failed.
The medium changer device must be configured to accept control commands
via the SCSI interface. Most EXABYTE medium changer devices provide
several control mode options. If the control mode is set to anything
other than the SCSI interface, then applications such as the chs utility
provided with this distribution, will not function correctly.
