PCI SCSI problems

I have an Alpha XP1000 and have bought an optional PCI external SCSI
card, KZPBA-CA.
I have put the card in and have a DLT tape drive attached. At the boot
prompt >>> sh dev
seems to recognise the DLT. Unfortunately I can't work out how to get it
recognised once
booted. I've tried just doing a MAKEDEV tz5 but when I try an mt on the
resultant rmt files I
just get "No such device or address". What tz number would I put if it
was on say bus 1, tz12?

I'm still learning the ropes on Alphas, how do I find out what
buses/cards are on the system
and what SCSI ids are recognised on these? Is there not a simple
command? Do I have to do
a kernel reconfig to get the card recognised?

Cheers

Steve
