Dear TSM world =]

I'm looking for some help about the device diagnostics tools
provided with
TSM:

OPTEST (Optical ?)
MTTEST (Tape ?)
LBTEST (Library ?)

(for Windows, under Device\)

Did anyone could explain me basic operations/procedures to diagnostics
hardware problems please ?

I've never seen any IBM documentation of these device driver utilities,
per se.  Basic usage info can be obtained by invoking them with  -
help  .
Beyond that, you will find specific examples for using them in various
IBM site Technotes.  For lbtest, see contributed info

And the IBM site is rich with information on hardware diagnostics in
general.
