You can have hints by using under ACSLS prompt :
display drive *,*,*,* -f type serial_num
With serial number, position and type of each drive, it will be easier.

You have the command inquire (by Legato) which tells you the serial number and 
the WW[P/N]N of a zoned drive.
You have tools with libraries like SLConsole (works with STK SL8500 ...)

not that i found. the least brain-taxing method i found was to tell acsls to 
load a tape into a particular drive then issue something like
  mt -f /dev/rmt/0cn stat
to see which drive the tape had magically appeared in.

eject tape, then repeat procedure for all tape drives.

maybe there's a better way, but this was easy and it worked.
