Steve,
What does your /kernel/drv/fcaXX.conf look like? Are you
trying to port bind the tape drives? The Solaris box will
'see' anything in it's zone, but that doesn't make it
available. I port bind the tape drives and force them
to certain targets/luns. Here's an example, YMMV.
fcaw.conf (relevant lines only)
# and fabric operation is enabled
fca_nport = 1;
Then further down.
# *See technote for details on hba bindings
def_hba_binding = "nonjni";
And a few lines later
def_port_binding = "$xxxxxx";
Now the HBA is looking for the Brocade ports. So I added
the following to the st.conf:
name="st" class="scsi" target=11 lun=0 hba="fcaw0" port="0d1600";
#Tape 9940-1 at SRL
name="st" class="scsi" target=12 lun=0 hba="fcaw0" port="0e1600";
#Tape 9940b-0-ecc
name="st" class="scsi" target=13 lun=0 hba="fcaw0" port="101700";
#Tape 9940B-0-srl
(I add the identical lines to sg.conf, changing the "st" to "sg".)
Then at your next reconfiguration boot you should see something
similar to this in /var/adm/messages:

Then after that works semi-flawlessly, you can do a sanity check to
be sure you're looking at the drive you think you're looking at.
Say target 11 lun 0 (0d1600); you can see that the st.conf gave it
a pseudo device of st@b, so you do a ls -l /dev/rmt/? |grep st@b
and get
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 40 Jul 21 11:16 /dev/rmt/9 ->
../../devices/sbus@1f,0/fcaw@1,0/st@b,0:
It's magic.
HTH,
Gregg
