Solaris

I am a solaris noob. I have a SPARC enterprise T5120 server which i am trying to connect 1 StorEdge 3300 and 1 StorageWorks MSL2024 tape library. Each device is connecting to 1 pci card on the server. I can see the array when i run the format command but i can't seem to detect the tape library.

Any help would be appreciated.

I would think that the storage array is seem by the format command because it is presenting a LUN (disk) to the system. The tape library is, of course, not disk storage so cannot be "formatted" in the same way.

I would think that you need to get the drivers, etc for Solaris and they probably come with a library exceriser or something like that.

I changed the tape library and replace it with a SAS tape drive and now, i can see the tape drive but not the array. So its probably not drivers but some other settings might be clashing? i read something about editing sd.conf but have not luck so far.
