Functionally 3.1 or above will work with LTO.  Just define it as generic
tape.  It is really just another SCSI device to ADSM.

LTO libraries performing with ADSM as designed at any level is questionable.

        Hi all TSM'ers

        I know that LTO is not supported under ADSM 3.1, however, I would
like to
        know if anybody has installed this library and tape drive
successfully under
        ADSM 3.1 and if yes, is the library and tape drive performing as
designed or
        does it performs better with TSM 4.1 or 4.2?

        Thanks and regards
