Autoloader with Solaris 10 guest? posted: Dec 17, 2007 10:14 AM

Has anyone successfully used a tape drive in a Solaris guest? I'm trying to see an autoloader with a pass-through SCSI device, but have not yet succeeded. Host is Debian, and "mtx -f /dev/sg4 status" succeeds in the host OS.

Doing a "touch /reconfigure" and reboot doesn't seem to accomplish much. /dev/rmt was created, but it is empty.
