Hi

Let me elaborate a little bit more . My library DDVTL2 is on a Data Domain VTL 
system . I read once it will be better to configure it as library type: VTL 
instead of SCSI .

I still didn't do it , but it is correct for VTL library as Data Domain , 
Diligent to choose  library type: VTL and for device to choose: 
\\.\TapeX<file:///\\.\TapeX> format ?

Best Regards

Robert

Hi to all

In the past I configured my path with device \\.\TapeX<file:///\\.\TapeX> ….. 
But I didn’t recall where to find the \\.\TapeX<file:///\\.\TapeX> format 
device.
When running the TSMDLST feature got the mtX.X.X.X format !

So I configured as you see the new paths with mtX.X.X.X format (VTL2DRV50     
mt2.24.0.7) .   It’s working but …

My Library DDVTL2 is SCSI library type.

My TSM server version is 7.1.0.100 on a Windows server 2008R2
