Has anyone tried to use a Wangtek 6130-FS DAT SCSI drive on a VAXstation
or DECstation?  We have such a tape unit attached to a VAXstation 3100
model 38 running Ultrix 3.1, and the tape will occasionally hang during a
backup to the device.  The hang SEEMS to be due to a lost interrupt.

If you've run into such a problem, what did you need to do to resolve it?
Thanks for any information you can provide.

If I get E-mailed responses, I'll post a summary if people are interested.
