After appearing this issues on actlog, TSM do not release the device file, so 
device file remains busy. The only solution that I find at the moment is to 
halt the TSM server to release device files. 
When I re-start the TSM it could access the device files normally until this 
issue occurs another time...

OS VERSION HP-UX 11.00
TSM 5.2.6.3
Using HP-UX Generic Driver to access tapes (stape).
Working with GRESHAM EDT 7.4.0.5.

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks in Advance,
