https://community.hpe.com/t5/operating-system-linux/can-t-detect-all-scsi-tape/m-p/3202772#M73633 We had the same problem. The command we used to force it to recognize the drives was /usr/sbin/probe-luns -i -l -c . This should enlighten your Linux box as to the existence of the tape drives. Also we had to place this in a startup script in order for the server to recognize the tapes on a reboot.
