Hi TSMers,

My environment is
                   Fiber                   SCSI
RS/6000(TSM Server) ----> 2108 SAN Gateway -----> 3584 LTO library.


The TSM server worked perfectly until yesterday. The tape drives all went
offline and the problem turned out to be the hardware failure of 2108.

IBM technician came and replaced the 2108. After that, I updated the latest
firmware for 2108 re-configured the 2108.


I have  followed the startup subsquence:
1. Turn on 3584 library;
2. Turn on 2108, initializeBox, targets, etc, reboot 2108
3. Restart RS/6000

Everything seemed fine, I can see all the devices on AIX, and inquery ok.

However, after I started up the dsmserv,

I got such errors:

But there is no error from errpt.


Any advice will be appreciated!
