The output is same.

rmt0 Available 00-00-0S-6,0 5.0 GB 8mm Tape Drive
mt0  Available 00-00-0S-6,0 Tivoli Storage Manager Tape Drive

so there is no way to do that.

Well,  the only other thing,
if you enter lsdev -Cctape, does the device show up as AVAILABLE to the
OS?

If it does, then I'm stumped.

It seems like it doesn't find the drive however if I ran


tsm: TSM>q drive

Library Name  Drive Name    Device Type  Device            ON LINE
------------  ------------  -----------  ----------------
-------------------
LIB8MM        DRV8MM        8MM          /dev/mt0          Yes

it shows that the drive is there. Am at loss again.
