That sounds familiar.

Used to be that you were required to set the CAP priority and mode to use
ACSLS with TSM.
I don't have an ACSLS/TSM library anymore, things may have changed a lot.
But according to my notes, we had to enter the ACSLS console commands to:

Set CAP mode to automatic
Set CAP priority to 1

You'll have to look up the exact syntax.
The changes are saved in the ACSLS data base, so you only have to do this
once.

Give it a try, won't hurt, even if it doesn't help.
Good luck...

There is something going on between the library and ACSLS; TSM is just
reporting the library's CAP status. You might want to run this past
StorageTek.
