Steve,

In the TSM MC, under device information, were you able to see "tape0" in
the "Device Name" colume? Just wanna make sure that the device is
controlled by the native driver.

That's what I tried to use first. And I got the following error when trying
to do the initial
device config.

----
Server Version 5, Release 1, Level 5.0
Server date/time: 10/13/2003 17:27:29 Last access: 10/13/2003 17:25:23

ANS8000I Server command: 'define library GENLIB1 libtype=manual'
ANR8400I Library GENLIB1 defined.
ANS8000I Server command: 'define drive GENLIB1 GENDRV_0.0.0'
ANR8404I Drive GENDRV_0.0.0 defined in library GENLIB1.
ANS8000I Server command: 'define path STEVEOIMAGE2_SERVER1 GENDRV_0.0.0

ANR8420E DEFINE PATH: An I/O error occurred while accessing drive

ANS8001I Return code 15.
ANS8000I Server command: 'define devc GENCLASS1 devtype=GENERICTAPE

ANS8000I Server command: 'define stgpool GENPOOL1 GENCLASS1

ANR2200I Storage pool GENPOOL1 defined (device class GENCLASS1).

ANS8002I Highest return code was 15.
----


So how do I use the device?
