Modifying the st.conf File
The Solaris operating environment recognizes all tape drives and autoloaders that
were supported by Sun when your operating environment was released. If your
system uses Solaris releases 2.5, 2.5.1, 2.6, or 2.7—all of which were released before
the DLT8000 tape drive—you must modify the /kernel/drv/st.conf file so that
your operating environment will recognize the DLT8000 drive.
Note – No st.conf modification is required for these operating environments:
Solaris 7: using Sun PatchID 107460-xx.
Solaris 8: using Sun PatchID 108725-xx.
If you are familiar with this procedure, go to “Modifying the st.conf File” on page
22. For more information on this procedure, go to “Understanding the st.conf
File” on page 20.
