Michael,

Atape 3.1.0.6.  2.1.0.6 is the required but 3.1.0.6 is newer.

Devtype info is in the README file.  If you don't have this get the one
from index.storsys.ibm.com/adsm/fixes/v2r1/aixsrv.

Only caution is for the 2 drive models B02,B12, make sure that you have
both drives on the same SCSI bus.

Other than that you can just follow the instructions in the 2.1.X.12
README file and that should get you through.

Any problems, re-post and I'll try and help.

Hope this helps

Dave
