If it's an external cd rom drive...make sure it's not a Pinnacle or Fujitsu brand...I spent 2 days in *#@&^$ trying to chase down a bizarre crash issue with a server I was working on...called HP support and they spent a day trying to figure it out...ended up being an incompatible cd drive...
If running an ioscan doesn't make the server recognize the drive...try restarting the server...I'm just assuming you're using an external drive on and Integrity server...perhaps a blade or ???

RXFORMAT(8) System Manager's Manual RXFORMAT(8)
NAME
rxformat - format floppy disks (2.11BSD)
SYNOPSIS
rxformat special
DESCRIPTION
The rxformat program formats a diskette in the specified drive associated with the special device special. Special is normally /dev/rrx0?,
for drive 0, or /dev/rrx1?, for drive 1, where ``?'' is either "a" or "b" to indicate single or double density access. The ``raw'' device
must be used. Single density is compatible with the IBM 3740 standard (128 bytes/sector). In double density, each sector contains 256
bytes of data.
Before formatting a diskette rxformat prompts for verification if standard input is a tty (this allows a user to cleanly abort the opera-
tion; note that formatting a diskette will destroy any existing data). Formatting is done by the hardware. All sectors are zero-filled.
DIAGNOSTICS
`No such device' means that the drive is not ready, usually because no disk is in the drive or the drive door is open. Other error mes-
sages are selfexplanatory.
FILES
/dev/rrx??
SEE ALSO
rx(4)
AUTHOR
Helge Skrivervik
BUGS
A floppy may not be formatted if the header info on sector 1, track 0 has been damaged. Hence, it is not possible to format a completely
degaussed disk. (This is actually a problem in the hardware.)
