Problem:

Customer replaced the external scsi tape/changer with the same model and scsi ID
and rebooted.

The tape and changer had null paths when showing the scsi info via hwmgr. There
was no info in the CAM edt.

Suggestions:

-> Thanks to John Lanier
        dsfmgr -vV (results: no errors)
        delete the scsi did and comp id
        hwmgr scan scsi (results: could not see devices)
        
Solution:

We ended up powering the machine down, pulling the card out of the slot,
reseated it, changed the SCSI cable and powered the machine back up. Both SCU
and hwmgr showed the information for both the tape and changer and all works well.
