Follow the steps below to configure HP-UX systems:

1.Log in as root.

2.Run the SAM utility.

3.Choose the Peripheral Devices option.

4.Choose Tape Drives.

5.From the Actions menu in the Tape Device Manager window, choose Add.

6.Within the Add a Tape Drive window, read the instructions, then click on OK.

7.SAM may detect that your HP-UX kernel lacks the drivers necessary to make use of your new tape drive. If so, within the “Device Driver Check” window, read the message and choose the appropriate action. If the chosen option is Build a new kernel and shut down the system immediately, SAM will create a new kernel, and automatically reboot the system. Once the system comes back up, the necessary drivers will be loaded, and the system will be able to use the tape drive.

8.If you had to shut down the system in order to physically connect the tape drive, re-enter SAM and repeat steps 3 through 6 above.

9.Choose the new tape drive.

10.From the Actions menu, choose Create Device Files.

11.Press OK and then exit from SAM.
