Does anyone have any other ideas how to restore on a dedicated server instance?

Hi,
We have problems to restore a database with a 3494 library
devconfig file using the DEFINE DEVCLASS, DEFINE
LIBRARY and DEFINE DRIVE commands listed above.
2. Attempt a database restore using the 3590CLASS device
class (i.e. dsmserv restore db devclass=3590CLASS)
.
This problem has been seen on AIX and Solaris with the TSM 3.7.x
and 4.1.x
We are running 4.2.1.9. For 3494 libraries it is
necessary to define a manual library.

We can restore the server by server to server communication and we don't
have a
problem to access the library from the restored server. Is the dsmserv
