DPT 2011 with Cache Modules Does Not Support Removable Media (102541)


The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Windows NT Server 3.1
  • Microsoft Windows NT Workstation 3.1
  • Microsoft Windows NT Advanced Server 3.1
This article was previously published under Q102541

SYMPTOMS

Removable media attached to a DPT 2011 SCSI controller do not properly handle media changes if you are using the DPT cache module. For example, using the DIR command on a removable media drive after changing the media may show the previous volume's information.

CAUSE

The host bus adapter (HBA) is not returning Test Unit Ready commands so media changes are ignored.

RESOLUTION

To work around this problem, do not attach removable media devices to the DPT 2011 SCSI controller card, do not change removable media, or remove the cache modules.
