netbackup with storagetek sl500 issues

[rongill]

to find the robot or any of the drives. Anyone have any suggestions on how to setup these devices in solaris so netbackup can recognize them?

i am assuming i have to setup the sg drivers .. ive tried for a few hours following the instructions from the netbackup documentation but no success.

When I type the cfgadm -all
the tape drives and fc modules should up as connected/configured

When I try robtest
"there are no robots configured"

When I type sgscan -all
all the wwids show up but no devices associated with them
only devices show up are the 2 hdd's in that server

typing in mt -f /dev/rmt/0 status
the tape drive does show up
"HP Ultra SCSI ....."

hello,

I have a sun server with solaris connected to a storagetek sl500 tape library. Connecting via 2 qlogic PCI-x fiber cards going into a brocade switch.

When I run the configuration for the netbackup it is not able to find the robot or any of the drives. Anyone have any suggestions on how to setup these devices in solaris so netbackup can recognize them?
