Be careful with this one. We just purchased a VTL ourselves. We are running TSM 5.2.3. We are currently waiting for a fix with the vendor in order to configure TSM.
In TSM V5.3, the code seems to have loosened up. Verify that the TSM version, o/s version, device drivers (o/s or TSM), the type of drives, is a configuration that the vendor has certified. Our problem is with LTO2 drives. Try speaking with one of their customers that has the same configuration as you do.

It will be direct fiber attached to our TSM 5.2.6 Win2K server via a host bus adapter. I was wondering how Tivoli will see the device for the path, is it similar the a scsi attached device ie. LB0.0.0.1 or something completely different?
