I was recently advised by Gresham that I might want to stop using the
Gresham AdvanTAPE 9840 driver and switch to the TSM driver because the
devtype GENERICTAPE (used when using AdvanTAPE driver) isn't supported by
the SAN storage agent.

Hi,

What is the preference of the TSM community? To use the vendor supplied
drivers for the library and tape drives or the TSM driver? Is
performance effected?

Environment:
STK L700 Library
STK 3100 Bridge (Crossroads)
7 X 9840 Tape drivers
W2K SP3
TSM 5.1.5.1


Thanks

JET
