Installation Manual
38 A Fibre Channel Tape Library, CD-R Drive, or Other Device is not Showing Up
A Fibre Channel Tape Library, CD-R Drive, or Other
Device is not Showing Up
Symptom Cause/Solution
A Fibre Channel device is
not showing up on a SAN
Manager LM Solaris node.
SAN Manager uses an alternate SCSI disk driver, which allows
SAN Manager to co-exist with the standard SCSI disk driver that
controls things like internal SCSI buses. SAN Manager LM for
Solaris has a separate driver class for the Qlogic host bus
adapter driver: tran_scsi instead of scsi.
If the driver.conf file for the tape, CD-R, or other type of Fibre
Channel device has the following line in it:
name="my_driver" class="scsi"
change that line or add another line that reads:
name="my_driver" class="tran_scsi"
