Why doesn't L&TT for Windows see devices that are connected to a computer running
HP-UX?

L&TT does not support a client-server model such as the HP-UX Support Tools Manager. You cannot
use L&TT on a Windows workstation to view devices that are connected to a computer running
HP-UX.

How do I connect/disconnect a SCSI device in Linux without rebooting?

To add a new device, connect the device and run the following command:

echo "scsi add-single-device <hostid> <busid> <targetid> <lunid>"

>/proc/scsi/scsi

To remove a device, run the following command and disconnect the device.

echo "scsi remove-single-device <hostid> <busid> <targetid> <lunid>"

>/proc/scsi/scsi

Why doesn't L&TT for VMS see my media changer?

VMS does not automatically recognize media changer devices. Media changer devices must be
associated with the GKDRIVER (generic SCSI driver). To associate media changer devices with
GKDRIVER, use the following command in VMS:

SYSMAN IO CONNECT <devicename> /DRIVER=SYS$GKDRIVER /NOADAPTER

The form for <device name> is G<x><z><uuu> where:

<x> indicates whether the media changer is connected to a SCSI or Fibre Channel HBA.

Use “K” for SCSI.

Use “G” for Fibre Channel.

<z> is the HBA identifier (A-Z).

<uuu> is the SCSI target ID and LUN ID combined.

For example, with a media changer having SCSI target ID 4, LUN ID 0, and connected to the
second SCSI HBA, the device name is GKB400.

“G” indicates that this device is associated with the generic SCSI driver (GKDRIVER).

“K” indicates that the device is connected through a SCSI interface.

“B” is the second SCSI HBA (HBAs typically have names from A to Z).

“4” is the SCSI target ID.

“00” is the SCSI LUN ID.

Why am I getting Error activating image PTHREAD$RTL while running L&TT on VMS
7.3-1?

L&TT on an VMS 7.3-1 system requires the VMS731_UPDATE V5.0 patch (or a later version) for
proper execution.
