Don't try to configure drive and robot like TSM devices. I have similar
experience with 3583 library. Install device driver for 3581 and you should
be able to see both devices as SCSI tape devices (/dev/rmt0 and /dev/smc0) .
When you will configure library and drive in TSM, use device type LTO
instead of SCSI. For more information see readme file of TSM 4.1.3 server
fix.
