To fix this problem, I deleted all AIX devices and ADSM and then re-add
each; cfgmgr on AIX then define drive in ADSM.

We had this problem when SCSI drives were swapped also.  A lscfg -vl rmt1
will show the serial number of the tape drive, and AIX expects this to be
correct or you have got problems. You may also get errors in the actlog
indicating that ADSM expected a certain tape to be mounted, but a different
one was actually mount.  You will usually get and AIX recovery logic
initiated by device though I am not sure if this is always the case.

        I seem to remember a similar error happening to me. A vendor was in
to do
        maintenance on the tape library and had inadvertently (!?) changed
the scsi
        addresses of one of the drives. I've also seen this error when the
element
        addresses of the drives was incorrect.
