Hi, 
I 
am 
stuck 
on 
a 
problem 
using 
2 
* 
HP 
Ultrium 
3 
tape 
devices 
on 
a 
solaris 
8 
server. 
The 
Solaris 
server 
can 
see 
the 
tape 
devices 
and 
they 
are 
created 
in 
/dev/rmt. 
I 
can 
also 
see 
the 
correct 
tape 
drive 
info 
in 
the 
messages 
log 
file 
on 
boot 
up.
  
 
  
When 
I 
run 
the 
inquire 
command 
I 
do 
not 
see 
the 
devices 
and 
a 
scan 
of 
the 
storage 
node 
using 
the 
NMC 
finds 
no 
devices. 
I 
have 
looked 
at 
st.conf 
and 
lus.conf 
but 
i 
think 
that 
is 
the 
OS 
can 
see 
the 
tape 
devices 
then 
these 
files 
are 
set 
correctly.
  
 
  
The 
tape 
devices 
are 
fibre 
devices 
presented 
through 
a 
qlogic 
2300 
HBA. 
I 
am 
using 
networker 
7.3.3. 
What 
could 
be 
causing 
the 
inquire 
command 
to 
not 
see 
the 
tape 
devices?
  
 
  
thanks
