Network [Solved] C4 scsci Tape library not detectable after lustarter patching on solaris 10 u4

Hi All,

We have patched our solaris 10 u4 server with lustarter patch in order to get it prepared for solaris live upgrade.The patch installation went pretty fine and we did reboot the server after patching.But after patching we have noticed O.S is not able to detect tape library.Not sure what to do next.Any ideas ? Smilie


Regards,
Sahil

What hardware platform are we talking about exactly?
# 3  
Old 09-19-2012
Sun M5000
# 4  
Old 09-19-2012
Hmmmm! M5000 ??

More questions I'm afraid.....

What version of firmware is on the box? (I'm thinking many patch operations can fall over due to out-of-date firmware.)

What is the QLogic card exactly? (I'm thinking do you need patch 125166-10 to make it work?)

What is the Emulex card exactly? (I'm thinking to you need patch 120222-26 to make it work?)

Which card is the library connected to anyway?

I'm not convinced we know enough to pass judgement yet.

Hi,

The firmware on m5000 box is latest one.We had upgraded it last month.The C4 tape is connected via QLogic card.

Is patch 125166-10 on the system?

Thanks for your quick reply.I had a quick look.It's not present.But tape library was detectable before lustarter patch being applied.
