Hi all,

I created a backupset successfully on HP DLT40e tape drive and can query the
content on the tape, but I cannot restore the backupset from it.

Our AIX level is 4.3.3.0, TSM server is 3.7.2 and the client is on the same
box as server. I wonder if HP DLT40 is supported on TSM 3.7.
Thanks a lot!

Here are the command and error message:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
>dsmc restore backupset /dev/rmt0 -loc=tape
>dsmc restore backupset /dev/rmt0 -loc=tape
