Daniel,

Thanks very much for that info.

We run TSM on AIX, currently TSM 5.1.9 on AIX 5.2.  We have no plans to 
change other than TSM updates.  So your info is a big relief.

Tab

Hi Tab

It all depends on which OS you're planning on running. As long as you 
stick with an OS where there has existed drivers for a long time, there 
shouldnt be any problems(like AIX, HP/UX, Solaris and Win32/64).

The problem arises when you try to move to a new platform, like Linux. The 

newly developed drivers doesnt support the 357X-series of hardware 
anymore. But, as long as you stick with a driver that has been around for 
some time(like the Atape driver for AIX) there shouldnt be a problem.

Daniel,

I just read your message.

We have two 3575s, an L12 and an L18.  Will they still work properly after 


we go to TSM 5.2?

Thanks.

Hi Sascha

It means from, so you shouldnt have any problems using your 3582 under TSM 



5.2.2.2. The only tape libraries from IBM that has gone out of support is 
the 3575-series of libraries.

Notice that you will have to download and install the IBM Atape device 
driver, which you can download from 
ftp://ftp.software.ibm.com/storage/devdrvr/AIX.

Best Regards

3582 supported on TSM 5.2.2 AIX ?






Hi List !

I just wanted to assure that the IBM 3582 (SCSI)-Library is supported 
under
TSM 5.2.2 (AIX) because "Supported Devices" on IBM-Website tells me:

IBM 3582 Ultrium Scalable                AIX      HPUX    SUN      WIN
The IBM device driver is required.
2 Drives 24 Slots                      5.1.6.5  5.1.6.5 5.1.6.5 5.1.6.5

Does this mean that said library is ONLY supported under 5.1.6.5 or is it
supported FROM 5.1.6.5 ON ?

Thanks for your support !
