Hi @YAG55
you 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 tapes
generate new cbn devices (if not happend by solaris itselv) started with 0cbn
configure and install sg drivers
ciao

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.

Have you tried to rebuild the sg driver?
On Solaris, this is a requirement once visibility at OS-level has been verified.
These steps have always worked for me:
# cd /usr/openv/volmgr/bin/driver
# /usr/openv/volmgr/bin/sg.build all
Install the new sg driver configuration:
# /usr/bin/rm -f /kernel/drv/sg.conf
# /usr/openv/volmgr/bin/driver/sg.install
Check/verify config:
# /usr/openv/volmgr/bin/sgscan

Hi Marianne,
Actually, the actions below have been performed
the result is:
One tape drive detected out of 10
/usr/openv/volmgr/bin# sgscan
/dev/sg/c0tw2100000d7754a0d0l0: Changer: "STK L700"
/dev/sg/c0tw2100000d7754a0d0l1: Tape (/dev/rmt/9): "IBM ULTRIUM-TD4"

Please go back to @tunix2k 's post.
Seems you still have a problem at OS-level.
