The netapp expects a very specific string, I think it's "QUANTUM DLT4000" and will bitch if it doesn't see it, even if the drive is an oemed Quantum.
There ought to be an option to skip the check, along with promised of dire consequences if you don't heed the warning. ;-)
We ended up finding a program, Dlttools.zip, that let's you change the name of the label on the SCSI drive, and the netapp was happy.
It's soft-configurable? I thought it would have been something burned into the ROM's. I'll hunt around for a bit to see if I can find it. Since it's a ZIP file, I assume this is a DOS or Windows utility?
