configure tape drive to sun solaris 10
Hi everyone.
Im new to Sun Solaris or the Unix environment. My only background is the DOS command in windows and a little bit of c++ programming. I always worked with troubleshooting hardware and software issues with windows.
Now that I need to configure tape drives using sun solaris, I had trouble starting up as most resources on the internet is thru Sun Solaris 9 and the only available version from sun is version 10.
I installed it already but had trouble connecting an external tape drive.i did probe-scsi-all, but it says not found.so i thought,maybe i need boot -r command to detect the newly installed device, but boot -r is not found also, i tried touch /reconfigure ;reboot, but when i tried devfsadm, still no result. there is no dev/rmt directory either.the system is on dual-boot with windows so i know that the tape drive and scsi device is working fine.
sorry,for the very detailed explanation, im really new to this one.
any suggestion is very much appreciated.thanks a lot.
