In TSM 5.2 you will need to use "native" windows drivers. Download them from:
ftp://service.boulder.ibm.com/storage/devdrvr/Windows/Win2003/IBMTape.W32_6063.zip

Before you install read the readme.txt (that's why is called readme)

You will need latest drivers for your SCSI card also.

Disable "Removable Storage" service in Windows, so the autoloader won't be 
controlled from windows.

After that, you can go to TSM Management Console and use Device Configuration 
Wizard. It should find the Autoloader.

This should work for you.

Subject: How to define an adic FastStor LTO Ultrium 1 with a 7 slot
autoloader under ITSM 5.2.2.5


Hi Listers,

I've got an "adic FastStor LTO Ultrium 1 with a 7 slot autoloader" and
want to drive it with my ITSM 5.2.2.5 for DR-Backups.

The ITSM is running under W2K3-Server. In the device manager of W2K3 I
see the tape drive and an undefined media changer.

Now I've two small questions:

1. Do I need any driver for the autoloader?
2. In which way I've to define that "library" to ITSM

Thanks for any useful answers


Ronald
