Wolfgang,

I have  an HP SureStore 4/40 and we had quite a time getting it to work
properly with TSM on AIX.  Much of it was related to the library itself,
so if you search the forum archives you will find the details of what we
went through with TSM and HP Tech Support, as well as some discoveries we
made on our own.

Hunny,

thanks for your reply. Your hint to lbtest.exe was very useful. Some
commands with lbtest are working very well, but sometimes the same
commands fails with I/O errors on one of the SCSI-buses. I've contacted
the support of HP and they're just looking for errors on the hardware
level.

bye,
Wolfgang
