Hi --
The short answer it to take down TSM and install the new Atape driver.
WARNING: The NEW ATAPE DRIVER REWRITES BOSBOOT, YOU WILL HAVE TO REBOOT!!!!
and sometimes Atape will force you to re-create the tape devices.
Therefore, I would recommend you do this upgrade during off hours.
Other than that, it is pretty easy.
Hope that helps,
Andy.
