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

show show up under /dev/rmt/, but I'm not sure how to add the Tape changer.
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).
We have a Dell PowerVault on an old Sun Sparc (Solaris) connected via scsi.
The configuration might be similar in openindiana.
To recognize the changer, the following is defined in /kernel/drv/sgen.conf
matching the SCSI identifier of the changer.
device-type-config-list="changer";
inquiry-config-list= "DELL", "PV-124T";
name="sgen" class="scsi" target=0 lun=0;
name="sgen" class="scsi" target=1 lun=0;
name="sgen" class="scsi" target=2 lun=0;
name="sgen" class="scsi" target=3 lun=0;
(etc for all targets)
after a reconfiguration reboot, the device shows up in
/dev/scsi/changer/c?t?d?
and use the "mtx" program to control it.
# mtx -f /dev/scsi/changer/c0t5d1 status
Storage Changer /dev/scsi/changer/c0t5d1:1 Drives, 16 Slots ( 0 Import/Export
)
Data Transfer Element 0:Empty
Storage Element 1:Full
Storage Element 2:Full
Storage Element 3:Full
(etc)
