Iban,

We were using the IBM driver but the generictape in TSM.  Yes, they are IBM 
LTO4 drives.

Are they LTO drives from IBM ¿?

Were you using the generic device driver of the OS or were you using the IBM 
device driver ¿?

Depending on how it was configured we can try one way or another ...

Let me know !!

Ibán.
