Re: [Veritas-bu] New tape drives not appearing in /dev/rmt.

Did you make sure you have /kernel/st.conf and (lpfc.conf if emulex fiber attached) entries.
I'm not fully up on Solaris 10 at the moment but Solaris 10 does a lot a new things automatically that solaris 8/9 does not.
Hope this helps

I removed all the entries in /dev/rmt, reconfigure booted, went through the sg install process, yet the server does not have entries in /dev/rmt for the new drives. The server is connected to two tape libraries:
1-L700 with 6 9840 drives, 2-i2000 with 4 LTO3 drives. The L700 drives continue to be present on the system and usable. I've also tried devfsadm, drvconfig, tapes, etc...
Why don't the entries appear in /dev/rmt?
I've done the same process on multiple Solaris 10 servers, connected to the same SAN and they all work fine.
