I'm not sure if this is the forum to post this, but it is in part related to NetBackup.
I am always looking for an opportunity to learn more about unix, and we recently had to build an sg driver for a new installation we're doing, and it brought up some questions that I would like to know more about. Primarily, the relationships between the files used to help creage the sg.conf file.
The one that is most intriguing is the sg.links file. Can anyone explain the sections of an entry in the sg.links file, and what the sg.links file actually does?
What information does the following line contain:
type=ddi_pseudo;name=sg;addr=0,0; sg/c\N0t010
And how does that information relate to st.conf, sg.conf, and /dev/rmt?
Also, it appears that the /kernel/drv/sg.conf file looks very similar to the st.conf file. Why doesnt the sg driver just use the st.conf file?
