Operating Systems Solaris Configure New LTO-2 Tape Drive Post 42115 by jgordon on Wednesday 22nd of October 2003 11:46:04 AM

I've done the boot -r and the probe-scsi-all and it will not recognize the new tape drive. I've updated the patch as the documentation suggests, so that part is OK. I've got it plugged into a dual channel scsi card and it sees the external drive array, but not the tape drive. THe new tape drive is a Sun LTO-2 drive attaching to a Sun Blade 150. Any other suggestions?
