Tape SAN Environment
W2k Server (QLogic HBA)
Solaris 2.8 SAN Attached Node  (Emulex HBA)
DLT7000 * 3
ADIC 100 Library

Windows Server can see all three drives over the SAN and I have tested =
the library successfully.
On Solaris I have issued the command sgscan, and can see robot and =
drives but the drives are not named (i.e. no /dev/rmt/0cbn).  When I go =
to /dev/rmt it is empty.
I have run: reboot -- -r   drvconfig  tapes

Am I required to edit the st.conf file on Solaris 2.8?
If so, exectly what do I have to do?  There are two entries related to =
DLT7000 and I have removed the # from the front of them and inserted  ; =
at the end of each entry.

Would I need to reboot after editing the st.conf file.
Do you think I am on the right track to troubleshooting the problem?


Thanks in advance, Mark
