Hi, If i have :

  Tivoli Storage Manager (3.7.3.0) for AIX 4.3.3 HBA: Emulex LP8000
StorageTek StorageNet 3100/3200 (=Crossroads
  4100) Drives : STK 9840 FC library: STK L180 (2x) Library: STK L700 (1x)
Fibre-Channel Hubs: StorageTek
  StorageNet 1000 (Vixel Rapport 1000)

  Do i need drivers for AIX? or Do i need to use acsls ??

  Storagtek can not help me with this question. Any help welcome.

  I have several problem when i want to define a drive trough Smit.

  This is the emulux stat

  # lscfg -vl fchan0
    DEVICE            LOCATION          DESCRIPTION

    fchan0            20-58             PCI Fibre Channel Adapter

          Network Address.............0000C922BA02
          EC Level....................DRAGONFLY 2
          Part Number.................LP8000
          Displayable Message.........Fibre Channel Host Adapter
          Loadable Microcode Level....3025801
          Diagnostic Level............1112000
          Manufacturer................EMULEX
          Device Specific.(YL)........U1.0-P1-I3

  This is the lslpp of the used driver (running BULL AIX!)

  # lslpp -l |grep df1

  And this is my lsdev -C

  fchan0 Available 20-58 PCI Fibre Channel Adapter fcp0 Available 20-58-00
Fibre Channel FCP Interface fcp1 Available

Channel FCP Interface fcp3 Available 20-58-3G
  Fibre Channel FCP Interface fcp4 Available 20-58-3H Fibre Channel FCP
Interface

  I can not communicate with the drives or the library.

  What am i doing wrong?
