Hi,
do you use Qlogic firmware&driver or SUN firmware&driver (SUN branded 
HBA)? You need follow the information on the readme of the driver -> 
ftp://ftp.software.ibm.com/storage/devdrvr/Solaris/IBMtape.README

8. Configuring with Fibre Channel HBAs

Depending if you use native Qlogic or SUN branded Qlogic follow the steps 
for either qlogic or SUN.

Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Kind regards

[ADSM-L] Configuring IBM LTO-4 DFA Drives in Solaris






Folks,
 
Trying to configure and use the IBMtape driver in Solaris with LTO-4 DFA
drives.  Qlogic QLA-2342 is the card.
 
We've loaded the IBMtape driver.  Have not rebooted with the -r to
reconfigure yet.  Looking to understand how to set up IBMtape.conf
before we do that.
 
Anybody with a similar LTO2,3, or 4 configuration probably holds the key
for me!  I'll go with "Hey, I'm not the Solaris guy so help me out..."
as my excuse for ignorance here.
 
As always, thanks in advance.
