I think you mean ADIC FastStor 2.
Your posting doesn't say anything about the all-important driver you
are using with the library and drives.  Make sure you are adhering to
the information provided on the Web page "Supported devices for AIX,
HP, SUN and Windows",
http://www-306.ibm.com/software/sysmgmt/products/support/IBM_TSM_Supported_Devices_for_AIXHPSUNWIN.html
as linked from the TSM Support Page

Assure that you are employing a 32- or 64-bit driver which matches
your operating system, according to the IBM information.  And always
test that the library and drive are functional at the operating system
level before trying to use with TSM: if it doesn't work at the OS
level, it sure isn't going to work in TSM.

When using the TSM device driver, you can test with the 'lbtest'
command (see Technote 1049959); and there is the 'ntutil' command.
