<DIV></DIV>&gt; 
<DIV></DIV>&gt;Here's whats worked for us.... 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; 
<DIV></DIV>&gt;Before You Start Do the following to verify the right SG Driver. 
(The pre-indtyalled Solaris one will goof things up.) 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; 
<DIV></DIV>&gt;1. Make copy of sg.conf and st.conf in the /kernel/drv 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; 
<DIV></DIV>&gt;2. Determine if an sg driver is loaded by using the following 
command: 
<DIV></DIV>&gt;/usr/sbin/modinfo | grep sg 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; 141 fc580000 2d8c 116 1 sg (SCSA Generic Revision: 3.4d) 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; 153 fc7fa000 1684 49 1 msgsys (System V message facility) 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; 
<DIV></DIV>&gt;3. Remove the existing driver: 
<DIV></DIV>&gt;/usr/sbin/rem_drv sg 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; 
<DIV></DIV>&gt;4. Install or reconfigure the sg driver. 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; /usr/bin/rm -f /kernel/drv/sg.conf 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; 
<DIV></DIV>&gt;b. To install the driver run the following command: 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; /usr/openv/volmgr/bin/driver/sg.install 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; 
<DIV></DIV>&gt;Once the driver has been installed, it is not necessary to 
reboot the system or run 
<DIV></DIV>&gt;the sg.install command during or after each system boot. 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; 
<DIV></DIV>&gt;Build SG Drivers 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; 5) cd /usr/openv/volmgr/bin/driver 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; /usr/openv/volmgr/bin/sg.build all -mt 15 -ml 1 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; 2) touch /reconfigure 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; 3) Reboot! (init 6) 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; 4) /usr/openv/volmgr/bin/sgscan all 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; 
<DIV></DIV>&gt;

<DIV></DIV>&gt; 
<DIV></DIV>&gt;Having a heck of a time trying to get my device drivers loaded 
for SUN L1000 tape library. SUN server running Solaris 8. 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; 
<DIV></DIV>&gt;Loaded netbackup 4.5 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; 
<DIV></DIV>&gt;I've gone through the steps in "Loading Veritas device drivers 
for Solairis" . sginstall etc. 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; 
<DIV></DIV>&gt;I'm still not seing the tape library. (sgscan) 
<DIV></DIV>&gt;nothing in /dev/rmt 
<DIV></DIV>&gt;nothing in /dev/sg 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; 
<DIV></DIV>&gt;have rebooted server with -r (reconfigure) still no luck 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; 
<DIV></DIV>&gt;any suggestions? 
<DIV></DIV>&gt;
