I have the same problem when I connect my TSM Windows 2000 Server to the 
IBM3584 library(thru' the SAN). When I don't use the TSM device driver for 
anything I can see the drives  but not the Library in TSM. When I use the TSM 
driver for the Library and Native drivers for the drives, TSM can see the 
Library now but it sees the drives as seperate entities and shows additional 
unknown drives under the Library.
How do I get this to work so that i can define the drives as automated drives 
under the Automated Tape Library.
