Hi Folks,

As I already said, I had to follow the guide where it says, how manually to
create sg devices and the actual sg.conf file including the tape drives or
targets/luns. That one was apparently missing in my case. Here are the
actual steps, if somebody needs them:

1) Install NetBackup 5.1
2) Install MP > 3, in my case it is MP5
3) Configure fibre switch for zoning, attach fiber cables, HBA cards, etc.
4) cd /usr/openv/volmgr/bin
5) ./sgscan
6) cd driver
7) ./sg.build all -mt 10 -ml 10
8) cat st.conf >> /kernel/drv/st.conf
9) rem_drv sg
10) mv /kernel/drv/sg.conf  /kernel/drv/_sg.conf (or remove it)
11) ./sg.install
12) devfsadm
13) ../sgcan

Thank you,
Boris
