In regard to: [Networker] SCSI inventory: EMC INQ utility -vs- Networker...:

Sorry for the very long post... if anyone knows of a separate SCSI
inventory utility that can "sniff out" the tape library I'd appreciate
knowing which one.

I've found the Linux sg3_utils to be incredibly useful under Linux, and
many of the tools build and work under recent Solaris.  This includes the
sg_inq command, but you have to give it a device file, so it may not work
for what you need.
