I've actually found on some platforms that only bouncing TSm doesn't resolve
this. I end up having to reboot to server machine, too. Seems that the OS
doesn't scan the SCSI bus and when TSm queries for devices you are getting
the 'cached' information from the last bus scan. When I added capacity to a
3583 library, I had to reboot the server to get it recognized. Now when I
make changes like that, drive additions/changes, firmware upgrades,... I
reboot.

If you haven't already done so, stop and restart the TSM server. You may
also need to run an audit library afterward.

IBM added two extra drives, since I associated them with the zone on the SAN
I have been getting the error below.  IBM did have to take slots out of the
library to install the two additional drives.  Any ideas on how to resolve
this issue?  Thanks.  Ken.
