you should use the lb and mt definitions, and the native device drivers for the drives which I think you are saying you do use. you can check this, in w2k, in the management console under tsm device drivers->reports->device information.

The Hitch Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy says of the Sirius Cybernetics
Corporation product that "it is very easy to be blinded to the essential
uselessness of them by the sense of achievement you get from getting them
to work at all. In other words – and this is the rock solid principle on
which the whole of the Corporation's Galaxy-wide success is founded
-their fundamental design flaws are completely hidden by their
superficial design flaws"...

Hi folks!
My environment is TSM 5.2 on Windows 2000, tapelibrary is 3583 lto on the
SAN.
II wonder.....when defining path for tapelibrary and drives, should the
device parameter be \\.\Tape0 and Changer0 (which is how Windows sees the
devices?)etc, or mt0.0.0.1 an lb1.0.0.1(which is how TSM sees the
devices?)?
What decides which device name we are going to use in such cases?
I'm running IBM Windows device driver for both library and drives.
kindly regards
-sylvia
