scsi tape device




For some reason I do not have /dev/st* . I compiled my kernel with scsi
tape support and I thought that would do it. Is there something that I am
missing. Am I looking in the wrong spot for my tape device.

I have a ICP raid card (GDT) which is fully functional and the kernel sees
the tape drive 

Configuring GDT-PCI HA at 0/9 IRQ 3
scsi0 : GDT6518RD
scsi : 1 host.
  Vendor: ICP       Model: Host Drive  #01   Rev:
  Type:   Direct-Access                      ANSI SCSI revision: 02
Detected scsi disk sda at scsi0, channel 0, id 1, lun 0
  Vendor: HP        Model: C1537A            Rev: L708
  Type:   Sequential-Access                  ANSI SCSI revision: 02
Detected scsi tape st0 at scsi0, channel 2, id 3, lun 0
scsi : detected 1 SCSI tape 1 SCSI disk total.
SCSI device sda: hdwr sector= 512 bytes. Sectors= 35551845 [17359 MB]
[17.4 GB]

but I am just lost as to how to access it in taper or kbackup.
