3581 2U with Atape 9.2.6.0

Hi all,

We're moving our Windows 2000 TSM server to an AIX 5.3 LPAR on a p520
(huzzah!).

I'm running into some issues however with the Atape driver on TSM
Version 5, Release 2, Level 2.0. The tape library is a 3623-2LX (aka.
3581 2U)

I've installed the atape driver and rebooted the LPAR. According to
everything I've read, I SHOULD have a /dev/smc0 device. I do not
however. What I have is a /dev/rmt0.smc. I've attempted to open this
with tapeutil and it kicks back an error. When I attempt to define a
library path in TSM to it, I get the following errors:

03/28/05 20:32:11     ANR2017I Administrator ADMIN issued command:
DEFINE PATH
                       CORPTSM01 3581LIB SRCTYPE=SERVER

                       ng library 3581LIB. (SESSION: 180)

From what I can read online, the rmt0.smc is for the some higher end
model libraries.

Can anyone provide any info that might tell me what in the hell I'm
doing wrong here?

Here's a list of the devices created by Atape. FYI the install of the
driver went fine and displayed no errors. Of course I get the following
when I run cfgmgr:

cfgmgr: 0514-621 WARNING: The following device packages are required for
        device support but are not currently installed.
devices.scsi
Configuration time: 1 seconds


But I understand that this is an error that can be ignored. I verified
that all the devices.scsi packages were installed.

Here's that device list:
