Can you access the drive with non-TSM utility? In a Linux
environment I would use the itdt utility supplied by IBM for this
kind of test. I don't know whether the utility has the same name
under Windows.

Was the World Wide Port Name of the old drive transplanted to the
new drive? If not, you will probably need to update SAN zoning.
