Hi,
Hope someone can help with this - really stuck.
I've got a backup server running on AIX v5.2 at ML 5200-02.
TSM Version 5, Release 3, Level 4.0
The server has a fibre channel connection to a SAN Data Gateway Router.
The library has a SCSI connection to the same SAN-DGR.
Green lights on all indicators.
There was a problem a couple of days ago that caused one of the drives to become unavailable.
The drive (rmt2) has been repaired.
[root@bkpsrv][/]$lsdev -Cc tape
rmt0 Available 10-70-01-0,0 IBM 3580 Ultrium Tape Drive (FCP)
rmt1 Available 10-70-01-1,0 IBM 3580 Ultrium Tape Drive (FCP)

rmt5 Defined 10-70-01 IBM 3590 Tape Drive and Medium Changer (FCP)
smc0 Available 10-70-01-6,0 IBM 3583 Library Medium Changer (FCP)
rmt0, rmt1, rmt2 and rmt3 are the drives in the library.
I'm unsure what rmt5 is and where it's come from, smc0 has always been the library.
As you can see, these are all 'Available'.
The 'dsmserv' daemon starts fine, and backups will run when using rmt0, rmt1 or rmt3.
/dev/rmt2 (or DRIVE03 to TSM) won't work.
A 'q drive f=d' shows the drive in an 'Unknown' state:

As you can see from the previous 'q path' the Library seems to be visible.
I can also run a 'tapeutil -f /dev/smc0 inventory' and get the results back.
After this I looked at the activity log and found an ominous error about the ODM:
