scan for a new media server (SunOS SERV 5.11 11.3 sun4v sparc sun4v) does not work :

Hi YAG55you have a problem with driver on OS Level. Prior to configure and install sg driver you have to solve this.Please have a look at devoce pathes. In cfgadm output you have c6 and c7 on pci bus pci@300. Your tape drivers are linked to qlc hbas in pci bus pci@3c0. Did you change the slots for hba ? Did you add a pci slot/bus to root ldom ?Please remove the dead links for *cbn (devfsadm -C)Solve the fc connection to see tapesgenerate new cbn devices (if not happend by solaris itselv) started with 0cbnconfigure and install sg driversciaotunix2k

I presume you mean tape device / library ...
I will hazard a guess that /usr/openv/volmgr/bin/scan isn;t showing anthing.
Do you see devices at OS level
cfgadm -lva -o show_FCP_dev
Do you have OS device files for the drives /dev/rm/0cbn etc ...)
If not, you need to resolve this at OS level first, if you do, you most likely need to rebuild the sg drivers.

  exactly, it's a tape device / library
  I confirm that the order does not return any output

    Hi YAG55
    you have a problem with driver on OS Level. Prior to configure and install sg driver you have to solve this.

    Please remove the dead links for *cbn (devfsadm -C)
    Solve the fc connection to see tapes
    generate new cbn devices (if not happend by solaris itselv) started with 0cbn
    configure and install sg drivers
    ciao
