I would suggest you to read TSM's "Messages" manual. In Appendix C "I/O 
Error Code Descriptions for Server Messages", Section "Common Values for 
ASC and ASCQ Codes" you can find: ASC=0x3A, ASCQ=0x00, Description="Medium 
not present".
It is by itself quite explanatory. I would say the volume is loaded in a 
drive described by element number X (q dri f=d) and another drive is 
attempting to read/write using path Y (q path f=d). In other words drive 
and path do not match. 
If this have been working before, verify some SAN component was not 
added/removed/broken and SAN re-configured. This was described in TSM 
Flash 2 (or Flash 3, I am not sure which one and have no enough time to 
verify - new snail ibm.com look'n'feel :(( )

It always says that it can't read the label of the tape inside the drive, 
but I 
always have checked in the tape before (it appear on the query  libvol)
Platform: W2K, TSM 5.1.6.1, an external SDG 2108 R03 I have the lastest 
firmware versions for the Library and the drives.  There is an issue that 
have 
something to do with cabling a SANDGM but I don't have a SANDGM installed 
on 
the library. Also I'm using the TSM Device Driver for the Library and the 
windows drivers for the tapes.

  Another issue, that doesn't have anything with TSM, someone know how to 
upgrade an LTO RMU firmware via scsi or serial?  In the proccess of 
upgrading 
it it failed, so now I don't have RMU control know, and on the manuals it 
doesn't talk about it (as long as I can see, you can only upgrade drives 
or 
library firmware through this process)

  Thanks in advance.
