I think you are correct, you have to use the "IBM device driver" for
Ultrium drives, look at
http://www-3.ibm.com/software/sysmgmt/products/support/IBM_TSM_Supported_Devices_for_AIXHPSUNWIN.html

which if you scroll down to the ultrium section (assuming they are IBM
ultrium drives), it states that the IBM device driver is required...Hope
this helps. Unfortunately I don't have any experience dealing with Ultrium
Drives in a SAN type environment (ask me again in 2 months :) so... Just a
thought.

Hi,
I am not AIX expert, but in my AIX environment I see something similar.
I think error messages are from TSM device driver, which does not support
IBM Ultrium devices.
You have to use IBMtape device driver for this devices. The second part of
your output from lsdev command (devices with state Available) show that
your IBMtape device driver is working OK. In your TSM definitions use
device names from IBMtape device driver.

If you do not use another SCSI devices, I think you can uninstall TSM
device driver (there are no devices controlled with it).

My 2 cents

Hi,

I have  TSM 4.2.1 on AIX 5.1, running on a pSeries machine. Recently
installed 2 HBA's(6228) on the server to connect it to SAN.

When i ran the Discover SAN attached devices from smitty i am getting the
following error.

TSM Define Methods done !!!!

                 device at the specified connection location.

Could somebody point out what i am missing here.
