The libray is not initialized under tsm because smc0 is not properly
configured, so an audit libray doesnt work does it?

yes I did, I set all the drives internal id's to 0.
did a config library from the panel and assigned the id's on the library
according to the book (drive1 scsi0 drive 2 scsi1 etc.) then I let it up to
AIX to cable select the id's with cfgmgr. The id's under AIX are correct.

Did you configure or reconfigure all the drives and especially the SCSI ID's
from the LIBRARY?

Hi all,

This morning I've changed a broken tapeunit (3570-C1A) in the library
(3575L32) and while I was at it put in an extra 3 drives.
AIX (4.3.2.0) had problems booting, and hung on LED 899.
Solved the problem by attaching the drives one by one on the scsi bus.
Now /dev/smc0 doesnt want to go through cfgmgr smoothly. when unhooking the
cable for a few seconds its being configured anyway. at least according to a
lscfg -Cs scsi.
It says its available. Now adsm (3.1) doesnt want to initilize the library.
I've tried everything. unhooking al drives but 1 (rmt0 or drive1) I've tried
other cabling, terminators and even screwed out the drive and replaced it by
another. 2 AIX guru's have looked at it but they havent got a clue either.

I'm beat, my backups havent been able to migrate, and backups are starting
at 00:00  hour!!!

Ps: richard, sorry for sending directly to u, but I'm really desperate.
