You don't say of ALL tape drives are refusing to mount, or if only certain ones are experiencing the problem. The "Reservation conflict" is the interesting part. Rick talked about deleting all the devices, and recreating everything, but it may just turn around and happen again if you don't get to

Richard, "dyntrk" is set to "no" on our systems. I am not familiar with this setting; what does this have to do with this problem? And I have always been told that SANDISCOVERY should be NO on AIX. Of course, things like that change, and I remember reading an APAR where the default set
