Re: [Veritas-bu] New tape drives not appearing in /dev/rmt.

My guess is that you need to add the WWN to the st.conf... Something like this:
name="st" class="scsi" target=c0tw500308c00189780al1;
Do that for each drive and then reload the st driver...
modinfo -i |grep st
modunload -i (number of st driver)
devfsadm -i st
That ought to clear it up.
One other possibility is to run the /usr/openv/volmgr/bin/sg.build
command and have it build the sg.conf entries. Then, just change the
'name="sg"' to be name="st" and put that in st.conf.
