I found that I actually won't need it as I can use a combination of st and sgen drivers. st does the tape and sgen does the library robot via the mtx utility (installed from openCSW). I hope this helps someone else sometime so here's my configuration: I actually commented out the example entries in /kernel/drv/st.conf and /kernel/drv/sgen.conf so these files are effectively empty. The SAS addressing is different to the examples and the drivers seem to dynamically pick up the target addresses and LUNs anyway. # add_drv st # add_drv sgen For each target address, the tape driver is on LUN 0 and the library on LUN 1. Check the /etc/path_to_inst. # grep -e '\<st\>' -e '\<sgen\>' /etc/path_to_inst "/pci@0,0/pci8086,3c0a@3,2/pci1000,3020@0/iport@f0/tape@w5000e11156304003,0" 2 "st" "/pci@0,0/pci8086,3c0a@3,2/pci1000,3020@0/iport@f0/medium-changer@w5000e11156304003,1" 3 "st" "/pci@0,0/pci8086,3c0a@3,2/pci1000,3020@0/iport@f0/medium-changer@w5000e11156304003,1" 1 "sgen" "/pci@0,0/pci8086,3c0a@3,2/pci1000,3020@0/iport@f0/tape@w5000e11156304002,0" 4 "st" "/pci@0,0/pci8086,3c0a@3,2/pci1000,3020@0/iport@f0/medium-changer@w5000e11156304002,1" 3 "sgen" "/pci@0,0/pci8086,3c0a@3,2/pci1000,3020@0/iport@f/tape@w5000e11156304002,0" 0 "st" "/pci@0,0/pci8086,3c0a@3,2/pci1000,3020@0/iport@f/medium-changer@w5000e11156304002,1" 1 "st" "/pci@0,0/pci8086,3c0a@3,2/pci1000,3020@0/iport@f/medium-changer@w5000e11156304002,1" 0 "sgen" "/pci@0,0/pci8086,3c0a@3,2/pci1000,3020@0/iport@f/tape@w5000e11156304003,0" 5 "st" "/pci@0,0/pci8086,3c0a@3,2/pci1000,3020@0/iport@f/medium-changer@w5000e11156304003,1" 2 "sgen" The st driver wants to sit on the same address/LUN as sgen for the library.

My guess is that this is the source of the problem. If you know the name of the kernel driver for the IBM tape module, you could rem_drv it. A reboot may be required for the change to take effect. - Garrett On Oct 6, 2013, at 9:37 PM, Tom Robinson <a class="moz-txt-link-rfc2396E" href="mailto:tom.robinson@motec.com.au"><tom.robinson@motec.com.au></a> wrote: </pre> <blockquote type="cite"> <pre wrap="">Hi, I'm running OmniOS r151006 on a SuperMicro X9 motherboard. I'm trying to configure an IBM TS3100 tape library with not much luck. I used to see the tape through the 'st' driver (at least I think it was the st driver). But after following the IBM documentation and installing the IBMtape driver a I can no longer see the tape. I'm also having issues with the 'reboot -- -r' command hanging on 'rebooting...' message and am wondering if that is compounding the issue (see separate thread). After no luck with the IBMtape driver, I am now trying to revert to the st driver and not having any luck with that either.
