If you REALLY want to see something neat, stop and start the device driver.
Every time you do that, the SCSI ID increments to the next highest number
not used. Our company installed a similar system for a client and
encountered this behavior as well as many other issues. Seems that the
"SCSI drive code has not been written to fully function properly with the
dual fibre path configuration that we have between the SAN Fibre Switches
and the servers. They seem to believe that this dual FIBER path is causing
the drives to get multi-initiated." Weather this has something to do with
multiple libraries showing up, I am not sure but, rest assured, it ain't
helping. Hope this helps a little.....

Please

"ADSM: Dist

Hello all. I was wondering if anyone had this configuration? I am running
TSM 4.1.1 on a Netfinity 6000R with NT4SP6a. The server is connected to a
FC Fabric consisting of an IBM 2109-S16 FC Switch. This then connects via
longwave fibre to a SDG 2108-G07. Finally we get to attach the 4 tape
drives to the gateway.
My problem is this: I have four tape drives and NT sees four libraries. I
know its a problem with either the SDG or NT driver levels. Here are some
specifics about firmware/driver levels
3584 Library NT Drivers: 1.1.7.6
3584 Firmware: 1200
Qlogic 2200 Firmware: 2.1.16
Qlogic 2200 NT Driver: 7.05.05 NT4 IP
Qlogic Bios: 1.61
SDG Firmware: 0341.31
FC Switch Firmware: 2.1.7
Please let me know if anyone can help me get my TSM server to see 1 library
with 4 drives.
Thanks much,
