Hi, I had the same problem. Try define everything without any sn or wwn numbers, in this direction:
Define library Define drive .... Define path (to library) Define path (drive) ...

It's 6.2 on Windows 2008 64-bit, with an HP library and LTO3 drives. I cannot get the library to see the TSM device driver, and it shows up as Unknown Medium Changer. I tried deleting the devices and installing the driver, but it came back the same way. Any attempts to install it just return a message that it's at the most current level. Thing is, yesterday I was able to work around it. I was able to change devconf.out to make the library a manual one, and it would mount tapes. I had to do some other stuff that necessitated switching back to the old server and taking a new database backup, and when we came back up on the new server, the devconf.out was basically wiped, probably on reboot. Now, when I try to make the library a manual one, I'm getting an error message that the device parameter in the "define path" line is not valid for a 349x library. I have no clue why it's trying to make it that kind of library. I've tried a number of different configs, and I'm beating my head against a wall at this point. Original devconf.out (modified for privacy): /* Device Configuration */ DEFINE DEVCLASS LT03 DEVTYPE=LTO FORMAT=DRIVE MOUNTLIMIT=DRIVES MOUNTWAIT=60 MOUNTRETENTION=60 PREFIX=ADSM LIBRARY=owner-LT03 WORM=NO DRIVEENCRYPTION=ALLOW SET SERVERNAME name_SERVER1 SET SERVERPASSWORD 21461293e7e722dfc44b1113c588ad1240 DEFINE LIBRARY owner-LT03 LIBTYPE=SCSI WWN="xxxxxxxxxxxx4000" SERIAL="xxxxxx000M" SHARED=NO AUTOLABEL=NO RESETDRIVE=NO DEFINE DRIVE owner-LT03 TAPE0 ELEMENT=480 ONLINE=Yes WWN="xxxxxxxxxxxx4F22" SERIAL="xxxxxx74J9" DEFINE DRIVE owner-LT03 TAPE1 ELEMENT=481 ONLINE=Yes WWN="xxxxxxxxxxxx6812" SERIAL="xxxxxx74F1" /* LIBRARYINVENTORY bunch of tapes*/ DEFINE PATH name_SERVER1 owner-LT03 SRCTYPE=SERVER DESTTYPE=LIBRARY DEVICE=lb0.0.0.2 ONLINE=YES DEFINE PATH name_SERVER1 TAPE0 SRCTYPE=SERVER DESTTYPE=DRIVE LIBRARY=owner-LT03 DEVICE=mt0.1.0.2 ONLINE=YES DEFINE PATH name_SERVER1 TAPE1 SRCTYPE=SERVER DESTTYPE=DRIVE LIBRARY=owner-LT03 DEVICE=mt0.2.0.2 ONLINE=YES SERVERBACKUPNODEID 129 The logical device names did change, and I modified them accordingly in my new devconf.out, but it didn't help. I need to get this library visible in some way so that this database can be restored. I've been all over the internet, but my Windows skills are limited, so I might be missing something.
