Yep... the only change (for simple, single server access environments) is
that you must DEFINE PATH in order to convey the device special file address
to the TSM server... the DEFINE LIBRary and DEFine DRive no longer accept
the device parameter.

Subject: drive online=no versus path offline=no


Hello,
with TSM 5.1 one has to define a path for each drive. Both, update drive and
update path have an online option. Is it sufficient to set a drive offline
in a single server environment?
Regards
Gerhard
