5.0.7 does not automatically detect new hardware.
Run 'mkdev tape'
and select the correct host adapter and input the scsi id, and lun information.
This procedure will rebuild the kernel, and after a re-boot you should see the tape drive in the hardware list at boot. (or check /usr/adm/messages for the same information if you miss seeing it during the boot.)

suggest open a new thread, but did you know where the tape is connected, I know isn't connected to the sas, then you should use another scsi adapter, ust look for the model and look for the driver, good luck and post new thread
