- Greetings, netfolks. I'm having trouble with a MicroVAX II, running VMS 5.0,
- with a TK50. Said TK50 worked up till recently, but lately does the following:
-
- I start a backup, it runs fine till it asks for a 2nd tape. When you load
- the 2nd tape in, system will not recognize. When you issue a REPLY/TO=
- command, process running backup continues to sit there, never loads 2nd tape.
- When you kill the process, drive will no longer work at all till reboot.
- I need to get a good backup before trying a power down to see if Tape
- controller can be cleared. Does this sound familiar to anyone? Any suggestions?
- Please email, I'll summarize if there's interest, don't follow group
- regularly. Thanks!
