Very nice instructions but IMO there is an easier method:

1. Allow Sun to replace the tape drive.
2. On media server, run /usr/openv/volmgr/bin/stopltid 3. On media
server, run /usr/openv/volmgr/bin/ltid 4. You will see
DRIVE:MISSING_SN######.
5. On media server, run /usr/openv/volmgr/bin/tpautoconf -replace_drive
Drive_Name. 
6. It that does not work, delete the drive and re-add it, use the full
command line to add the drive and name it.

Example:
/usr/openv/volmgr/bin/tpconfig -update -robot 0 -drive 3 -robtype acs
-ACS 0 -LSM 2 -PANEL 1 -DRIVE 14 ; /usr/openv/volmgr/bin/tpconfig
-update -drive 3 -newasciiname Drive21

Justin.
