problem with device file

Hi ...
I am facing a strange problem regarding device file for my tape device. Normally it is /dev/rmt/0m . Presently it is showing /dev/rmt/1m . I have tried rmsf -a /dev/rmt/1m , all device file deleted in the directory , then [ insf -eC tape ]to recreate the device files . It never created any new device files. Rebooting the machine creates those files again with 1m not 0m
Same server with tape device attchd with same SCSI id is showing 0m/
Pls help

ioscan -fnC tape
and post the results.
