unsure of your see your deviceses in cfgparameters...might work fine,
but I ususally do a "cfgadm -al -o show_FCP_dev" which will show if the
FC devices are visable.
You'd want to see
"c#::WWN,LUN#         tape         connected    configured   unknown"
for every tape device, plus an entry for the robot.
 
if you don't have a response from cfgadm for every device, every
sg.build/install and boot -r in the world won't help you.
 
That tell's you your zoning/physical layer stuff is good adn the devices
are responding properly.
then do your sg.build, making sure you have a high enough mt and ml for
the number of devices you have, then the sg.install, then do a sgscan to
see if NBU sees the devices....if you're goo at that point, delete
everything in /dev/rmt, and do the reconfigure reboot.

        Master Server: Sol 10 on Sun v440, Netbackup 6.0 MP4 connected
to PX506 via fibre San 
        Media Server: Sol 8 on Sun v880, Netbackup 6.0 MP4 connected to
(same) PX506 via fibre San. 

        I cannot get my Sol 8 Sun v880 netbackup media server to create
the /dev/rmt device nodes.  The /devices..../st* files do not exist
either.

        I ran through the sg.build on everything.  Doing an sgscan on
the Sol 8 media server: 

        /dev/sg/c0tw100000e002233aafl0: Changer: "Quantum PX500" 
        /dev/sg/c0tw100000e002233aafl1: Tape (???): "Qauntum SDLT600" 
        /dev/sg/c0tw100000e002233aafl2: Tape (???): "Qauntum SDLT600" 

        No /dev/rmt devices exist for my PX506 drives. 

        I do have a stand alone SDLT600 "shoebox" connected via scisi
local on the v880 that does have /dev/rmt/0* devices. 

        When doing a "devfsadm -vc tape" 
        I get "invalid st_rdev" 

        A reconfiguration reboot doesn't do anything either. 

        The PX506 fibre setup works with my Sol 10 master server, and
various other Sol 8 Media Servers. 

        I'm using a QLA 2310 fibre card, and yes it has the Sun F-Code
on it. 

        Any ideas?
