Hi, sorry if this post is not easy to read, I just copy-paste from my notes:-). Enjoy it..

The Sun SPARC® Enterprise M-series server line is the newest addition to Sun
Microsystem’s mid-range (M4000/M5000) and high-end server (M8000/M9000) families.
Designed for the enterprise- class datacenter, all members of the server line offer a great deal
of configuration flexibility in addition to high performance and reliability.

REPLACE INTERNAL TAPE:

1. unconfigure tape drive from OS

# cfgadm -a
c0::rmt/0 tape connected configured unknown
# cfgadm -c unconfigure c0::rmt/0

Stop the connection to the CD-RW/DVD-RW drive unit on the same controller
as the target tape drive unit

#cfgadm -a
c0::dsk/c0t4d0 CD-ROM connected configured unknown
#cfgadm -c unconfigure c0::dsk/c0t4d0
# cfgadm -a
c0::dsk/c0t4d0 CD-ROM connected unconfigured unknown
c0::rmt/0 tape connected unconfigured unknown

2. Detach the target tape drive unit from the port

XSVF> cfgdevice -c detach -p <port no.> command
3. Confirm that the target tape drive unit is unconfigured from the domain.
cfgdevice -l
4. Remove the tape drive unit
5. Mount the replacement tape drive unit
6. Attach the tape drive unit to the port
XSCF> cfgdevice -c attach -p <port no.>
7. Confirm that the target tape drive unit is configured from the domain.
XSCF> cfgdevice -l

8. from OS, execute command ‘cfgadm -c configure TAPE_Ap_Id’ to configure tape drive
#cfgadm -c configure c0::rmt/0

9. from OS< execute command ‘cfgadm -c configure DVD_Ap_Id’ to configure DVD drive
#cfgadm -c configure c0::dsk/c0t4d0

10. execute ‘cfgadm -al’ to verify the status of tape drive and DVD drive

NOTE:
PSB (Physical System Board)
XSB (Extended System Board)

A PSB that is logically divided into one part (no division) is called a Uni-XSB, and a PSB
that is logically divided into four parts is called a Quad-XSB. On Quad-XSB configuration;
ONE XSB CONTAIN TWO PCI SLOT
