IBMtape is not used for DLT drives. The mt (drive) and lb (library)
drivers are used, which are bundled into the Sun Solaris ADSM Server.
Assuming the devices are attached, can be seen via probe-scsi, a
boot -r was done, and there are entries for the correct target ID's in
mt.conf and lb.conf, you have to run the add_drv command to create the
/dev/rmt links, which are then used in the adsm define drive command.
/usr/sbin/add_drv -m '* 0666 bin bin' /usr/kernel/drv/mt
/usr/sbin/add_drv -m '* 0666 bin bin' /usr/kernel/drv/lb
It is also wise to remove the entries from /kernel/drv/st.conf for these
same target ID's.
