Andy,
I had the same issue using the JNI FCE-6410 HBAs.
I resolved the problem by doing the steps below.
By the way I built the links and drivers for NB 3.4.
Hope this helps,
Robert Richardson

Configure the tape drives and robotic path.
A. Rebuild the st.conf, sg.conf, and sg.links files.
I. cd /devices
II. rm pci@1f,4000/JNI,FCE@2/*
III. rm pci@1f,2000/JNI,FCE@1/*
IV. drvconfig ; devlinks ; tapes
I. cd /usr/openv/volmgr/bin/driver
II. /usr/openv/volmgr/bin/sg.build all -mt 6 -ml 4
III. cat sg.links sg.conf st.conf
IV. mv /kernel/drv/st.conf /kernel/drv/date.st.conf
V. /usr/bin/rm -f /kernel/drv/sg.conf
VI. /usr/openv/volmgr/bin/driver/sg.install
Copied files to /kernel/drv and to /kernel/drv/sparcv9.
Doing add_drv of the sg driver
Removing old /dev/sg entries.
Editing /etc/devlink.tab...
Copying original /etc/devlink.tab to
/etc/devlink.tab.07-19-02-10:25:46.
Added entry in /etc/devlink.tab file.
Made links in /dev/sg
VII. vi /kernel/drv/st.conf <--Comment out old lines and insert
the newly created st.conf
file.
B. Rebuild the /dev/rmt tape links.
I. cd /dev/rmt
II. rm *
III. cd /dev/sg
IV. rm *
