nbu new connect to FC tape library how to

Hi 

My current version is 6.0 MP 4 , the original configuration connect to C4 storage with SCSI interface, now I insert the disk to another same model server to boot up it successful, I do this as I want to configure the netbackup to connect with the new FC IBM tape library, check the command by tar backup is working fine.  Next I want to use the nbu to connect to this library, but I can't export the Java console in different subnet, I would like to know if there is command to remove the old device and add new FC tape library for running backup.   Please advice. 

NBU 6.0 MP4 ,Solaris 9 64 BIT , IBM FC TS3100 

7.1.x and Earlier
Solaris

    Did you remember to run sg.install after sg.build?

    As long as sgscan is not seeing robot and tape, there is no point in trying to config NBU or looking at tpconfig output.

      Rebuilding sg drivers is not the same as NBU device config.
      It simply ensures that sgcan can see devices at OS-level before you do device config.

      You can use tpconfig command to delete and add devices.
      The command will bring up a text-based menu that is self-explanatory.

        Yes, I already delete the old drive and robot, now run sgscan but only see the internal disk , and can't see the robot.
