I have a Dell PowerVault TL2000 tape library which I'd like to connect directly

Do I need to modify /kernel/drv/sgen.conf and add a changer? I tried to use 
add_drv as the sgen.conf file suggests, but sgen was already in use (even 
though everything is commented out in the sgen.conf file).

# add_drv -i "'IBM     ULT3580-HH4' 'IBM     ULT3580-HH4     ' 
'CFGIBMULT3580HH4'" sgen
("sgen") already in use as a driver or alias.

Is there something I'm missing? Thank you for your help,


Have a look at the mtx tape changer package, you can install
it from /dev. 'man st' for details of the
devices. You may want to activate the hotplug service.
Don't forget to 'touch /reconfigure' before reboot to
wipe out accidential misconfiguration.
