Thanks Aziz,

I ran the cfgadm -al, it gives the following output

bash-3.00# cfgadm -al
Ap_Id Type Receptacle Occupant Condition
c2::273908001b80479e tape connected configured failed

i also ran show_FCP_dev -al

Ap_Id Type Receptacle Occupant Condition

c2::2100001b321aa150 unknown connected unconfigured unknown
c2::273908001b80479e med-changer connected configured unknown

If you notice, the Ap_id c2::273908001b80479e is showing as med-changer in the 2nd output and tape in the 1st output.

The library has 2 tape drives, i dont see them.

Hi Aziz,

I came across some more things.

i ran the ls -ltr /dev/rmt/*cbn command and it shows me 2 outputs

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 78 Jun 8 18:52 /dev/rmt/4cbn -> ../../devices/pci@7c0/pci@0/pci@8/SUNW,qlc@0/fp@0,0/st@w273908001b80479e,2:cbn
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 78 Jun 8 18:52 /dev/rmt/5cbn -> ../../devices/pci@7c0/pci@0/pci@8/SUNW,qlc@0/fp@0,0/st@w273908001b80479e,1:cbn

If you notice the WWN no. of both of them are similar, also cfgadm -o show_FCP_dev -al shows the medium changer with the same Ap_id.

I also checked the /etc/path_to_inst file and it shows me entries with the same WWN or the Ap_id.
