Did *you* look? 38D0 is the latest there, and he already has that version.


Anyway, I also was on 38D0 and Atape 8.4.1.0. When one LTO2-FC drive had
problems, it took down the AIX 5.2 machine it was attached to with it. It
crashed hard, multiple times.

Support told me that it was a problem with 38D0 in combination with Atape
8.4.1.0. Atape 8.4.1.5 was released to circumvent this, but the CE also
placed 42D0 on the drives and 3484 on the library (a 3584).
