Steve,
    I sure don't have Tom's TSM expertise, so 'grain of salt' this -- but my 
TSM admin had to do a db restore on a 3494 (due to an auditdb gone bad) at 
version 5.1.x.x.  He did have to define the 3494 as a manual library to access 
the db tape.   I'm thinking your desttype='library' is the problem.  In our 
devconfig, it was 'drive'.  Here is the devconfig file he used:

/* Device Configuration */
DEFINE DEVCLASS 3590CLASS DEVTYPE=3590 FORMAT=DRIVE MOUNTLIMIT=DRIVES 
MOUNTWAIT=60 MOUNTRETENTION=5 PREFIX=ADSM LIBRARY=3494LIB
SET SERVERNAME BLAHBLAH01
DEFINE LIBRARY 3494LIB LIBTYPE=manual
DEFINE DRIVE 3494LIB DRIVE1
DEFINE PATH BLAHBLAH01 DRIVE1 SRCTYPE=SERVER DESTTYPE=DRIVE LIBRARY=3494LIB 
DEVICE=/dev/rmt1 ONLINE=yes

Steve --

Manual libraries are just that - Manual - and do not have a path to the
library.

You need to use the local library management system (I'm not familiar with
3494 as such) to mount tapes by hand for the restore.
