The TSM server communicates with the library manager on the 3494
by way of a library manager daemon running on the same host as
the TSM server. The TSM server will have a server to library path
defined for each TSM library definition. As I noted previously,
both server to library paths will use the same device specification.
The configuration file for the library manager daemon specifies a
mapping between device names and IP addresses for physical libraries.
Since both server to library paths use the same device, the
daemon will send commands for both TSM libraries to the same IP
address. Unless you go out of your way to change the daemon
configuration, this will be the same IP address you are using now.
