Hello,
Editing the st.conf file is Fraught. It's _very_ easy to make a
mistake. I've heard grumblings that Sun no longer supports editing that
file, so check with your Sun representative.
Saludos,
Jose.

Tape Configuration
The st tape driver has a built-in configuration table for
all Sun supported tape drives. In order to support the addi-
tion of third party tape devices or to override a built-in
configuration, device information can be supplied in st.conf
as global properties that apply to each node, or as proper-
ties that are applicable to one node only. The st driver
looks for the property called "tape-config-list". The value
of this property is a list of triplets, where each triplet
consists of three strings.
The formal syntax is:
tape-config-list = <triplet> [, <triplet> *];
where
<triplet> := <vid+pid>, <pretty print>, <data-property-name>
and
... lots more info removed...
