Many thanks for this. At the moment I have only gone on "hear say".

Do you happen to have any Technotes about this? or any forum links ?

A recent exercise with VMware a few months ago brought to light that
VMware does NOT support guest access to SAN-based tape drives, and has
no plans to do so. Some fiddling around managed to get a guest to see
such tape drives, but they did not work reliably at all.
