Hi Mike.
$ scu scan edt
$ scu show edt
To find out if the new scsi device is seen by the os.
Remember the SCSI-ID of your new tape-device.
Remove all rmt* and nrmt* from your /dev directory.
./MAKEDEV tz[SCSI-ID] (in your case, most likely: tz5)
If that doesn´t do the trick....
You have to introduce the new scsi-adapter to the kernel with doconfig
(without the -c parameter)...do not edit the kernel-file manually.
if everything is fine
$ file /dev/rmt0h should show the correct tape-drive.
