[mark has responded more fully, but this may help on the short term]

Unfortunately, we (the PCP developers) don't have access to any large
SGI systems any more, but ...

I think you'll find the disk stats in disk.dev.* ...

Tape stats have always been problematic ... they have been in, out, in
and now out again.  I don't remember all of the issues, but I can feel a
dull pain developing in the back of my brain. 

As Mark said, if we could get some collaboration, or even guest access
to your system, we could probably progress a solution here.
