Currently my /dev/rmt directory has symlinks for the ID 0 only no matter what I tried (devfsadm, cfgadm, boot -r, etc.) By any chance, is configuring the SG driver a next step once I have all the entries in /dev/rmt? If I don't have /dev/rmt entries for the 2nd drive, what should I do?

That possibly makes boot up a little slower, but it also means the drives will be picked up almost regardless of whatever silliness I might pull on the SAN. :-) Regards, T. -----Original Message----- From: Song, Young [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, 11 May 2006 8:25 AM To: Tristan Ball; veritas-bu@mailman.eng.auburn.edu Subject: RE: [Veritas-bu] Sg / sgen driver issue Hi Tristan, That sounds to be my case as well. From the info for the one drive and router that are visible, how can I identify and add the correct entry for the other tape drive into st.conf file? Thanks! - Young -----Original Message----- From: Tristan Ball [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, May 10, 2006 3:15 PM To: Song, Young; veritas-bu@mailman.eng.auburn.edu Subject: RE: [Veritas-bu] Sg / sgen driver issue Have a look at your st.conf. I have a MSL 6030, and it attaches to the FC via a built in SCSI/FC router. That router presents the tape drives as LUN's 1 & 2, with the controller as LUN 0. By default, the solaris st only scans LUN 0, but that can be changed in ST conf.

I'm running Solaris 8 with all the latest Solaris patches including st driver patch, etc. & latest SAN Foundation Kit 4.4.9. And I have a FC-attached HP MSL 5060 library with 2 LTO-1 drives via Brocade Silkworm switches. After installing NetBackup v5.1, I tried following the steps in MediaMgr_DeviceConfig_Guide.txt but no matter what I tried, I couldn't have it see both tape drives properly and I believe it's something to do with sg.conf, sg.links, & devlink.tab files. However, I may be wrong. I tried all I could try with cfgadm, devfsadm, luxadm, zoning, etc. and know that I have all the proper connections and the box can see the library itself but not all the drives. Anyone experienced similar things and have any advice?
