The first part of the tape definition (the quoted, comma seperated line) can
be a comma seperated list, with the last item in this list requiring a
semi-colon, while the second part of the definition corresponding to the
first requires a semi-colon after each list entry. Since you have a just
one drive definition, they both need semi-colons. Look at the stock st.conf
file near the top, each of the quoted, comma seperated lines listed after
"tape-config-list" is comma seperated with the last having a semi-colon.

Funny thing that. If you look at the default st.conf that comes in
Solaris, all the entries in the tape-config section end in commas, only
the data portion all end in semi-colons. In fact, the Veritas media
manager configuration guide (that Bill so kindly pointed out) lists the
tape-config entry as ending with a comma, which mine now does. To date,
no errors.
