Hi I'm interested in your experiment, but unfortunately I do not have a
LTO5 connected to an openindiana host.

However it seems that the library is not recognized by the driver, have
you tried to probe the correct devices ?
search for a file that is on /usr/kernel/drv/IBMtape.conf.
from the solaris read me
ftp://ftp.cac.psu.edu/mirror/devdrvr/Solaris/IBMtape.README :
"

6) Add the entries up to target 255 in IBMtape.conf
     The new IBMtape.conf will help IBMtape driver to probe those devices which
are mapped
     over target 15 by HBA driver.

     For new install, the new IBMtape.conf with a SCSI target range from 0 to
255 is copied to
     the directory of /usr/kernel/drv/.

     For the update, IBMtape driver doesn't overwrite the old IBMtape.conf in
the directory of
     /usr/kernel/drv during its installation. To use the new IBMtape.conf, the
user needs to
     backup the original file of IBMtape.conf in /usr/kernel/drv, copy
IBMtape.conf from the
     directory of /opt/IBMtape to /usr/kernel/drv, and modify the new
IBMtape.conf according
     the original file of IBMtape.conf. It will take effect after the system
reboot or IBMtape
     driver is reloaded in the kernel.

Hello !

Many thanks for your answer ! I looked my /usr/kernel/drv/IBMtape.conf file an
discovered that my IBMtape.conf already has these lines as you described in your
letter. Here is is last line of my IBMtape.conf file.

name="IBMtape" class="scsi" target=255 lun=1 block_size=0 buffering=1
immediate=0 trailer=0 sili=0;
