If you can see the device from a Bios scan (probe-scsi-all at the OK
prompt), but not with an "sgscan" at the OS, then it's almost surely a
/kernel/drv/sg.conf or /kernel/drv/st.conf problem.  Make sure those files
are complete and correct for your address ranges.

I am running NetBackup 4.5 on a Solaris 8 box, but it will not see the IBM
Ultrium2 tape drive in the STK L700 (this is the only one I am connected
to). The Solaris box sees it and has the correct entries in "/dev/rmt". But
when I do an "sgscan" or try to have NetBackup discover the drive from the
gui it will not see it.

Sorry if this is an ignorant question, but i'm under a time crunch and am
new to some of these concepts.

Thanks

Pete Akre
