Step 12: Alter the tape configuration file (Enterprise 3500 only)

If you are running on a Sun Enterprise 3500 platform, you must alter the /kernel/drv/st.conf file so the operating system recognizes the 3500’s 8mm tape drive. To accomplish that, do the following steps:

1.Start an editor such as vi or the CDE Text Editor, and load the /kernel/drv/st.conf file.

2.Find the #tape-config-list=line. It should be in the vicinity of line number 40.

3.Insert, immediately before that line, the following:

#Begin CMS tape configuration list. tape-config-list=

"EXABYTE EXB-8900","Mammoth EXB-8900 8mm Helical Scan","EXB-8900",

"TANDBERG TDC 4200", "Tandberg 2.5 Gig QIC", "TAND-25G- FIXED",

"TANDBERG SLR5", "Tandberg 8 Gig QIC", "TAND-8G-FIXED"; EXB-8900 = 1,0x29,0,0xce39,4,0x7f,0x7f,0x7f,0x7f,0; TAND-25G-FIXED = 1,0x37,512,0x867a,1,0x00,0; TAND-8G-FIXED = 1,0x37,512,0x963a,4,0xA0,0xD0,0xD0,0xD0,3;

#End CMS Tape configuration list.

4. Save the file and exit the editor.
