Hi,
I am also having the same problem on IBM Tape Library with 3580 LTO Tape
Drive. I connected through SAN.
I have installed Tivoli Storage Manager Storage Agent 5.3.2.0, Tivoli
Storage Manager Device driver 5.3.2.0 and I disabled Removable Storage
Service.

As the post from Bill alludes to, the TSM device driver is for non-IBM
devices, if you only have LTO drives connected, you do not need the TSM
device driver started. On my Wintel server with IBM library and LTO
drives, it is set to manual and is in a stopped state.
If you are still having problems seeing your drives or defining them,
then the problem is elsewhere. Check that the IBM Tape driver that you
have is at a sufficient level to support LTO3.

Leigh,
The driver installed is the "IBM ULTRIUM III 3580 TAPE DRIVE (for Tivoli
Storage Manager)". Should I uninstall the TSM Device Driver then ??
Thanks.

You don't mention whether you have already loaded the correct IBM device
drivers for LTO3's through Windows device manager, but the below might
be of assistance.
The way in which the Windows TSM device driver works changed at V5.2.
See serwinref.pdf
IBM Device Driver for 3570, 3590, and IBM LTO Devices Important: If you
currently use 3570, 3590, or IBM LTO devices, you will need to install
the IBMTape driver that supports your device. The Tivoli Storage Manager
Device Driver will no longer recognize these devices. See the
Administrator's Guide for more information and instructions on how to
download the drivers and Installation and User Guides.
If You need the specific IBM Tape device drivers for Ultrium drives.
You can download them from
ftp://ftp.software.ibm.com/storage/devdrvr/

Hi list,
I have a TSM 5.3.2 Server running on a W2K SP4 with a IBM Ultrium LTO
III 3580 connected via SCSI interface. The TSM Device Driver service
does not start and I get the following error:
"The system could not find the device specified"........
Please advise.
Thanks
Mario
