I have a 760 running 6.3.1 firmware 2.8_a2 and I have connected a working Sun DLT7000 with active termination LDV SE, and when I try to boot I get a Mailbox timeout, followed by a Timeout! which repeats. Any ideas? It works fine with out the tape drive, and I have tried 3 identical drives with the same error.

That's because a 760 needs a differential one, HVD actually :)
LVD won't work.
true but if you need to use your tape try to use lvd to hvd converters from paralan. --- Mike Horwath drechsau@visi.com wrote:
