Hi
Thanks for responding. It was only a reboot issue. After rebooting the server I
defined the library and all was right again. This makes 2 TSM upgrades to
5.1.6.3 where
there has been a library/tape drive problem. I've got 2 more to go and I'm
getting a little nervous... Atleast this one was more worry than anything else

Objet : Re: Enable to define library
I think mksysb will tell u from AIX point of view that it is working on STK
silo.If it works then w.r.t AIX its ok.Then did u configure w,r,t TSM in
devices for this STK drive ?If yes ,then u can verify that they are on line
.
You need to configure and make it online from TSM point of view .And if u
use adv support for devices u should run respective support s/w before u
define library.ex: in acsls we run rc.acs_ssi and define stk server name
.Run two process run that connect to STK drive.Only then define library will
work,
Hope it gives u clue!!!

Hi Guillaume,
Here are some of the possible causes of your error and some recovery
procedures that I found for you.
0514-040 Error initializing a device into the kernel
Possible Causes:
You were unable to configure a specific device. While trying to initialize
your device driver, you were unable to load it as part of the kernel
extension. The specific device driver file in the /etc/drivers file is
damaged or contains software errors.
Your Object Data Management (ODM) database file is damaged, and you are
unable to configure your device.
Procedures for Recovery:
Check for possible software errors if you are modifying your configuration
method or device driver.
Try replacing the device driver file if you suspect that the device driver
is damaged.
Copy the device driver file from another system that has the same release
level as your system, either through the network by running the ftp command,
or through a diskette by using the backup and restore commands. When you
restore the file, make sure that it preserves the permission code,
ownership, and location of your previous file.
Enter your command again.
If you suspect that the ODM database is damaged, try replacing the PdAt
file.
Copy the PdAt file from another system that has the same release level as
your current system, either through the network by running the ftp command,
or through a diskette by using the backup and restore commands. When you
restore the file, make sure that it preserves the permission code,
ownership, and location of your previous file.
Enter your command again.
Good Luck,
Hope this helps

Hi all
I just upgraded from 4.2.3.3 to 5.1.6.3. Everything went fine but now I
can't definine my Library. It is an STK 9730 with 2 DLT drives. The drives
were deleted and
redefined during the install without a problem. But when I try to define the
library through smit, I get the following error :
Method error (/etc/methods/cfgtsmdd):
0514-040 Error initializing a device into the kernel.
BTW I am on AIX 5.1
Thanks for the help
