Hi all,

I have a TS3500 tape Library with 2 drives TS1120...how should I define it to
TSM? TSM Server is 6.2.2 running on Windows 2008.


Here is what Windows and TSM Management Console actually "see"....and the tsm:

        * 4 Changer0 devices
        * 2 \.\\Tape0 devices
        * 2 \.\\Tape1 devices

Why the tsmldst utility identify 4 libraries and 4 drives? Actually the WWN and
the Device Identifier show that there is only 1 Library, but how do I configure
it in TSM?


Here is what I've defined at TSM:

        * Device:  Type = 3592 and Format = 3592-2C
        * Library: Type = SCSI, Device=\.\\Changer0
        * Drives: Device= \.\\Tape0 and Device=\.\\Tape1


All created PATHs are online....but I can't manage to checkin any tape....

Any help is appreciated.
