Hi ,
Hope you can help. I don't do a lot of Solaris administration any longer and
am under pressure to finish this rebuild.

Basically I have a Sunfire V120 (Solaris 8) which I had previously setup
with an external RAID array I had built on a Storedge 3300, and decided to
rebuild the whole system since I had previously made some mistakes in the
partition sizes for root, etc, etc

Anyway.. now that I have reinstalled Solaris, I cannot figure out how to get
the OS to recognize the previously working Storedge 3300 RAID device any
longer.
I know I got it working before but cannot remember what steps I took.

Whenever I do a 'format' I only see the 2 internal drives.

I know the hardware is OK, as I can still see the external devices from the
boot prompt with a probe-scsi-all, but when I boot the OS I cannot see them.

I have looked at and done everything in the Storedge installation manual ( I
think)
including
- edit sd.conf and add LUNS to all the targets
- create /kernel/drv/glm.conf and used modinfo to see it is loading
- reboot -- -r
- installed Solaris8 Recommended patches

but still don't see the RAID volume from 'format'

Is there something I have missed?
How to troubleshoot this?

Thanks
alan
