The hard addressing is correct if you are going straight to the server.
Unless you have changed something (like re-installed the fribre driver)
your driver parameters should be OK - but you may want to check that they
are configured to come up in loop mode only, not fabric mode.
I think you need to use robtest and sgscan to see what is going on, it
sounds as if there is a disconnect between where Netbackup thinks it is
putting the tape and where it is really going. Do you have the Library
Admin GUI so you can see if the tape is being loaded into a drive? You
can also check the FSC log for the library that way.

Subject: L700 StorageTek Question w/Veritas
I am using an L700 tape library.
5- STK9840 drives
4- HPUltrium2-SCSI Drives
All drives connect via fiber.
The host is a SunOS 5.8 box running Veritas NetBackup 5.1.
There is something going on with the Fiber+I/O Port Configuration.
Basically a couple weeks ago the first four STK9840 tape drives went down
(in veritas: DOWN/TLD) when Veritas tries to write to these tape drives.
We get â??I/O port error cannot open port.â??
I thought it was an issue with the drives.
I changed the fiber loop for the A/B addresses for the four STK9840 drives
to 02/02, 03/03, 04/04, 05/05.
After I did this, four of the drives came up successfully but then four
other drives went down.
Does anyone know the key to setting the fiber addresses?
The panel says:
1-125 for HARD PORT (this is what I am using)
126 for SOFT PORT (this disables the port)
Are there any StorageTek technicians or users of the L700 who may have had
similar problems in the past?
Thanks!
Justin.
