There is no directories for 1 in /dev/rmt. Just the ones for 0. Also when I do the devfsadm -f /dev/rmt/0 config it does find the tape drive. I included the output from this above. Still scratching my head.

The scsi is a pci@e card with two ports. I'm not finding anything about a bios setting for it. But will look again. I have switched cables and get the same results. Plus since the devfsadm command does come back with the drive type and name I have to believe it is reaching it okay.
