I previously had four LTO2 drives in each of two libraries....do to a
bad GBIC in a switch, and several subsequent events, one drive wasn't
visable, so my backup server was only seeing 7 drives.
=20
Last night, I replaced the 8 port Sun FC switches with a couple of
Brocade 3800s that were released from another project, and added an
additional 3 LTO3 drives in each library.
=20
I did a /usr/openv/volmgr/bin/sg.build, followed by an sg.install
=20
I've added the following to the /kernel/drv/st.conf
=20
        "HP      Ultrium 3",           "HP Ultrium LTO3",   "ULTRIUM3";
=20
ULTRIUM3 =3D 1,0x36,0,0xd639,4,0x44,0x44,0x44,0x44,3;

I can see all the drives when I do a:
bash-2.03# cfgadm -al -o show_FCP_dev
=20
all eight LTO2, and six LTO3
=20
devfsadm, or a boot -r picks up all the devices properly, and creates
all the proper device files, but sgscan sees only the 7 LTO2 drives.
I used tpconfig to remove all of the old drive configs and re-ran the
GUI device configuration wizard, but it sees 7 LTO2 drives, and 2 drives
of unknown type.
=20
sg.conf is up to date with all WWN maps, etc.....so sg.conf isn't
reporting any errors about unmapped WWNs.....
=20
I used tpconfig and manually configured all 14 drives and can exercise
them using robtest, but sgscan and the device config wizard still see
the same.
=20
any idears?
