I got a fresh new LTO-6 SAS drive but Arkeia 10.2 doesn’t seem to be able to use it. When writing the label to a tape, I got no error but if I try to read the label I got a warning message saying the tape has no arkeia label.
I tried several tapes and still have the same problem. I do believe my drive is working because a simple backup with tar works.
Is there already a soltution for this issue? I would like to use a LTO7 HH with Ark 10.2.12. and I think that will also an issue for this drive. Thanks
Upgrading from Ubuntu 12.04 to Ubuntu 14.04 fixed the issue for us. It seems that it was an issue with either the kernel version or the device listing. We are trying to find a new backup solution though as WD has killed future development for arkeia and we are in the process of moving from ubuntu 14.04 to ubuntu 16.04
