cfgdevice(8)

A DVD/TAPE drive is mounted in each of the base and expansion cabinets in a high-end server that has the expansion cabinet. In such cases, each DVD/TAPE drive can be connected only to a domain within the cabinet in which the drive is mounted. Settings for connection must be made for both the base cabinet and expansion cabinet.
