The vendor that did our Veritas NetBackup 4.5 FP5 install said it was necessary to use /kernel/drv/sg in our situation (and it looks like the robot is /dev/sg/c3t1l0). SG is some sort of generic SCSI driver, correct? Why would I need both st and sg? There's still alot I don't understand about our setup, so please forgive the noob questions.

Thanks, in advance!

Okay, was it a stupid question (if so, why?) or does anyone just not know, or what am I missing here?

Thanks!
