This might not be the case but also may be - you wrote AIX 4.3.2.
According to http://www.tivoli.com/support/storage_mgr/ad6serv.htm
you have to be at AIX 4.3.3 or later for TSM 4.2.x. I would even go to
4.3.3ML6 or ML8 for bos.?p and bos.rte.* !

Subject: TSM 4.2.1.7, 3590
Hello TSM'ers!
Has anyone running TSM on AIX using 3494/3590 tried the 2.2.1.7-server?
After applying this level last night, I can't get my 3590's to work.
When trying to mount a tape, the mount fails.
A server-trace show this:
18:46:46.312 <58>mmsflag.c(2889): Opening drive 3590_1 (/dev/rmt1) in
library 34
94.
18:46:46.359 <58>pvrntp.c(2734): Testing readiness of drive 3590_1
(/dev/rmt1).
18:46:46.360 <58>psntpop.c(1568): Error performing TESTREADY operation on
drive
3590_1 (/dev/rmt1); errno = 22
q mount report the usual "mount point waiting..."
After a couple of minutes it times out:
18:47:46.374 <58>mmsflag.c(2941): Drive 3590_1 (/dev/rmt1) in library 3494
timed
out.
The tape-volume get physically mounted in the drive. Monitored by mtevent.
mtlib -l /dev/lmcp0 -qM also report the volume as mounted.
The tapedrive itself is online and ready..
Any hints on what to check/what could be wrong, anyone?
The readme of 4.2.1.7 refer to IC32125, which has been fixed.
I have not had this problem, but it seems to deal with similar problems
that I see now.
Could it be the the fix for IC32125 that introduce new problems?
I did't commit the 4.2.1.7, so I could go back to 4.2.1.6. However, my DB
is huge, so I would prefer not to do so if not absolutely neccessary....
AIX is 4.3.2
Atape is 5.4.4.0
atldd is 4.1.5.0
The 3590's are E1A-models, SCSI-connected directly to the server.
