SUMMARY: NetWorker: "SJI driver not loaded" "Bad File Number" error, can't drvconfig

All,

Thanks to list members and Sun support I was able to resolve the problem.

The drvconfig problem was solved by adding
        set kobj_map_space_len=0x400000
to /etc/system and rebooting.  I also removed the symlink in /devices to
itself, although the Sun storage technician I spoke to noted that
RAIDmanager might need it to function.  I found this suggestion in the
sunmanagers archive, thanks netsys!

However, a (finally) successful boot -r didn't solve the problem. A
colleague logged in and discovered that the QLGC,isp card the jukebox was
connected to had disappeared from /usr/kernel/drv/lus.conf.  He added
QLGC,isp:16-7 to the known-scsi-adaptors line.  After rebooting again, I
was still getting the networker errors.

Next, after posting my problem to sunmanagers, subscriber ddunham
suggested ensuring that everything with RAID manager and Networker was
up-to-date and referred me to PatchPro.  Stuart Whitby from Legato
suggested modunload and modload might help (modinfo | grep -i lus yielded
the appropriate ID number).  After doing these two things, still no dice.
(But I did upgrade to NetWorker 5.5.5 in the process, which proved to be a
Good Thing).

Luc I. Suryo's answer was correct but when I received it I didn't really
know how to implement his solution correctly, so I enlisted the assistance
of a Sun storage technician.  Stopping and starting the networker daemons
(/etc/init.d/networker stop and then start), moving
/usr/local/nsr/res/nsrjb.res to a different filename and creating a new
jukebox profile using jb_config solved the problem.  The Sun tech had me
follow up with nsrjb -HEv to initialize everything.

My jukebox is now happily inventorying its tapes and all's well.  Many
thanks to all!!

-K
