*SMers,

Does anyone know off hand what commands/process the TSM server uses
when
trying to detect tape drive changes via SAN Discovery?  We are
having some
issues with the SAN Discovery option since we do not run our TSM
servers
as root.

Sean - SAN Discovery is perhaps best outlined in the redbook
       "Get More Out of Your SAN with IBM Tivoli Storage Manager".

It depends upon the HBA API provided by the equipment vendor.

You can search from the TSM Support page
  http://www-306.ibm.com/software/sysmgmt/products/support/
IBMTivoliStorageManager.html
for "hba-api" for various info, particularly Technote 1193154.
