L25 causing system to hang

Have recently purchased an L25 tape drive system, hooking it up to a V120, using a PCI SCSI-3 dual channel I/O card. The problem occurs when trying to reboot the V120. The L25 causes the V120 to hang during the boot process. Sunsolve reported a similar problem and suggested checking the sd.conf. I have checked the sd.conf file, and have had another admin check it as well, and we both agree the sd.conf file is correct. At the ok> prompt, probe-scsi-all reports correctly the library(robot) and the drive SCSI IDs that are set for the L25. The V120 is so badly hung that it fails to recognize a "stop-A", thus requiring a power cycle for a reboot. I have also loaded the recommended patch as suggested from the Sun system handbook for the L25, but this provided no success. So... looking for some help.
Any suggestion greatly appreciated.
Thanks!!
Dale
