AIX 7.1 cannot discover drives from TS3310 tape library
Good day!
Need help in checking my AIX 7.1 box.
After we have finished zoning our TS3200 and TS3310 tape libraries, we installed the Atape driver,
After refresh of devices [cfgmgr -v], only the TS3200 drives could be seen.
Is there something that we might have missed?
Note: tpautoconf is a Netbackup command
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Was able to resolve the problem by installing an updated version of Atape driver from 11.7.7.0 to 12.6.7.0.
After cfgmgr -v, all drives including the robots were already discovered.
Thanks!

I have a server/domain on a m5000 running Solaris 10. It is part of a cluster.
The other cluster member sees tape drives, but this one does not.
It is zoned correctly, and I can see the drives are binded in lputil.
The st.conf, and devlink.tab are identical.

How do I find if a server contains a DDS3 or a DDS2 drive remotely ?
I checked in SMIT and I noticed the description field according to tape drives, but is there another more thorough way?
Thanks,
