All SCSI tape drives do not require any drivers for it. You just need to know which SCSI host adapter that you are connecting it to. Check which SCSI host adapter you have / buy and make sure you have the correct drivers available for you OpenServer 5 level. There were / are several levels of OpenServer 5 and some drivers are not always available for each level.

scsi_transport(9F)					   Kernel Functions for Drivers 					scsi_transport(9F)

NAME
scsi_transport - request by a SCSI target driver to start a command SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/scsi/scsi.h> int scsi_transport(struct scsi_pkt *pkt); INTERFACE LEVEL
Solaris DDI specific (Solaris DDI). PARAMETERS
pkt Pointer to a scsi_pkt(9S) structure. DESCRIPTION
Target drivers use scsi_transport() to request the host adapter driver to transport a command to the SCSI target device specified by pkt. The target driver must obtain resources for the packet using scsi_init_pkt(9F) prior to calling this function. The packet may be initial- ized using one of the makecom(9F) functions. scsi_transport() does not wait for the SCSI command to complete. See scsi_poll(9F) for a description of polled SCSI commands. Upon completion of the SCSI command the host adapter calls the completion routine provided by the target driver in the pkt_comp member of the scsi_pkt pointed to by pkt. RETURN VALUES
scsi_transport() returns: TRAN_ACCEPT The packet was accepted by the transport layer. TRAN_BUSY The packet could not be accepted because there was already a packet in progress for this target/lun, the host adapter queue was full, or the target device queue was full. TRAN_BADPKT The DMA count in the packet exceeded the DMA engine's maximum DMA size. TRAN_FATAL_ERROR A fatal error has occurred in the transport layer. CONTEXT
scsi_transport() can be called from user or interrupt context. EXAMPLES
Example 1: Using scsi_transport() if ((status = scsi_transport(rqpkt)) != TRAN_ACCEPT) { scsi_log(devp, sd_label, CE_WARN, "transport of request sense pkt fails (0x%x) ", status); } SEE ALSO
