Re: Fw: Does anyone install TSM 5.1.5 with Tape Autoloader 3607-16X ???

Hi,
Reply for the questions :
a) PATCH 5.1.7.1 is the TSM patch which will have Fix for the 3607-16x autoloader. and if you have already upgraded to TSM 5.2 you will need to download PATCH TSM 5.2.0.2

b) This will be available at Customer Download site for regular Patch dowloads.

c) TSM does support 3607-16x in 5.1.5 release but since there was Firmware or microcode change from IBM which has different inquiry string and so TSM device driver will
not be able to claim autoloader as supported TSM device. The fix for this is included in patch 5.2.0.2 and patch 5.1.7.1

Thanks !!!

Thank for your answer. Can I ask you some more detail: a.. PATCH 5.1.7.1 is patch for autoloader IBM 360716X or patch for TSM 5.1.5 or TSM 5.1.7. I install TSM 5.2, Win2K SP3 but nothing change b.. Where I can download it ? c.. What does it mean: "TSM will stop working with 3607-16x" . TSM don't support 3607-16X from now or only TSM5.1.5 don't support 3607-16x ? Any help from you will appreciate. ----- Original Message ----- From: Himanshu A Madhani To: ADSM-L AT VM.MARIST DOT EDU Sent: Friday, August 01, 2003 12:47 AM Subject: Re: Does anyone install TSM 5.1.5 with Tape Autoloader 3607-16X ??? you might need to Download PATCH 5.1.7.1 for the tape autoloader. since there was Inquiry change in the latest Firmware TSM will stop working with 3607-16X .

Are you sure it is recognized/supported in v5.1.5??? I remember it being announced this year while v5.1.5 came last October. Visit IBM support site (I have no time to do it for you now) and look since which version 3607-16X is supported. Or download v5.1.7 and try it directly!!

I can't manage tape in Tape Autoloader 3607-16X with TSM 5.1.5. It make me crazy. Can anyone help me ??? TSM 5.1.5 Device Driver can't recognise all the device in Tape Autoloader 3607-16x. So that I use Windows native drivers but when I mount tape by RSM and backup by TSM client, the process fails and show the message "Server media mount not possible" *************************** Le Minh Hieu FPT Software Solution, FPT Corp.
