1.  Yes, as is embedded in firmware.  There may be some kind of
sublevel for Specialist but not aware of.  I have firmware 5050
and don't see any "version" info on my Web page

2.  Probably put in a hardware service call to IBM. 

I know with early 3584's (3 -4 years ago), there was some firmware 
problems with the Ethernet interface, been fixed a long time.

Well, this is peculiar.

This is a new 3584, firmware level is 5550.  (Thanks to the folks who
helped me figure that out yesterday!)

When I use the Tape Library Specialist (web interface) to set the SNMP
destination address, the Tape Library Specialist crashes.
That is, the web interface goes to "page not found", and won't
reconnect.

When I go to the LED and look at Network Settings under Ethernet, it
says "Ethernet is not installed in this frame", which is of course not
true.
After a reboot, the Ethernet network settings reappear just as they were
before.

This appears to me to clearly be a problem with the Tape Library
Specialist.


1) Is the level of the Tape Library Specialist considered to be the same
as the firmware level - 5550?

2) Where does one research problems with the Tape Library Specialist to
see if the problem has been reported?
