Hi,

We have expanded our 3584 library with one frame and partitioned the
library into 2 logical libraries. One of these partitions is use by our
"old" wintel ITSM environment, the other is for our new AIX ITSM server.


The wintel ITSM servers are reading all the 8 characters of the LTO
labels, the AIX server doesn't read more than 6 characters. 

>From the documentation of the 3584 library, it sounds like you turn on
or off this 6 character feature for the total library and all connected
servers. So the problem must be in AIX and possible the Atape driver,
right?
>From Google searches, IBM website and so on, I cannot find any related
info on how to tell AIX to read all 8 characters of the barcode, so it
should be the library.. Right??

Please, anyone can solve this and tell me where I am going wrong?

Wintel ITSM server 5.2.4.1 :    000001L1 
AIX ITSM server 5.3.1.2:                000006
