SUMMARY: Adaptec SCSI card doesn't see my tape drive on Ultra10

Looks like the answer is that the Adaptec pc hba's aren't recognized by
SPARC boxes only x86 so I will install Solaris on one of my x86 machines
and give it a try.

Below is my original question

I have an Adaptec AHA-2944UW pci card in an Ultra 10 running Solaris 9.
I have an Exabyte 220 Jukebox attached to it.
The host is not seeing the Jukebox with probe-scsi-all. I did a boot -r
and that didn't help.

I was under the impression that the AHA-2944UW was supported on Solaris
does anybody have one working?

I called Adaptec and they don't have a driver for it for Solaris.

According to Sun's website it says

The following Adaptec Ultra SCSI devices are now supported by the adp
driver and not the cadp driver.

Is there anything I can do to get this card recognized by my host?

Thank You.
