Just FYI, there was an issue with Sun's RAID Mgr 6.2.2 and Legato 6.x,
which was addressed in a bugID (sorry, can't remember which right now) on
SunSolve.  It had to do with device handle contentions, which were
resolved when Sun came out with RAID Mgr. 6.2.2.1.   When I was running
6.2.2 and NetWorker 6.x, my jbconfigs and inquires would take upwards of 1
hour to complete, for an 8-drive, direct-attached tape library.  When I
moved to 6.2.2.1, they completed in about 15 seconds.   YMMV.

My config are large LUN's (100-200 disks on at least 2 HBA's) &  FC
connected (via JNI HBA's). I do not have RM (Raid Manager) installed.
Inquire takes a terribly long time to finish ('days' if left), inquire
uses high cpu cycles, SmartMedia DCP's start verrry slow and/or Networker
DDS most of the tme breaks. On a Solaris 2.6 boxen, my inquire / jbconfig
goes normally, Either SmartMedia DCP's or Network DDS operations are fast
and do not consume high CPU cycles.

Looked on SunSolve and Legato TechBuls??? and nada. Any ideas Senores y
Senoras?
