This error-Messages looks to me like an error
generated by Windows. (BTW: What does the event log
say about the error?) You don't have to configure
the changer at all for Windows. It should be controlled
by the TSM Device Driver from within TSM only.

Windows does not need to be able to talk to the library.
You only need the device manager to check the SAN connection ;)

Here is the details page of the library from IBM.
Look for the required driver and firmware levels (I think
you wanted to write 5.1.6.7 instead of 5.0.6.7, right?).

You can only check your installation by configuring the
library for TSM. On 2003 I only could be sure about the
setup after I defined the path to the lib in TSM and it
returned with no errors. See the Admin Guide about how
to configure the devices to use TSM drives on 2000.

Here is the information from the IBM site:

 Hints and tips
 
Abstract
Configuration Information for IBM 3582 Ultrium Scalable 
 
Content

IBM ULT3582-TL

Model: ULT3582-TL
Drive Addresses: 256-257
Storage Slot Addresses: 4096-4118
Changer Address: 1
Entry/Exit Slot Addresses: 16


Notes:

1. Maximum numbers of drives and storage slots supported
2 drives 24 slots

2. Barcodes are supported.

3. The IBM device driver is required for IBM Ultrium 2 drives.

4. Device identification and firmware level
Library ID : IBM ULT3582-TL --- Firmware : 205B
Drive ID : IBM ULTRIUM-TD2 --- Firmware : 2B81

5. IBM 3582-TL does not report drive serial numbers.

6. The IBM device driver is required for the autoloader. The drivers are
available on the following ftp sites:

AIX : ftp://ftp.software.ibm.com/storage/devdrvr/AIX/
HP-UX : ftp://ftp.software.ibm.com/storage/devdrvr/HPUX/
Linux : ftp://ftp.software.ibm.com/storage/devdrvr/Linux/
Solaris : ftp://ftp.software.ibm.com/storage/devdrvr/Solaris/
Windows : ftp://ftp.software.ibm.com/storage/devdrvr/Windows/

7. The TSM device driver from version 5.1.6.5 to the latest 5.1 PTF version
can be used on the Windows platform. The TSM device driver version 5.2 does
not support IBM 3582.

 Hi TSM Guru,

Important detail: TSM 5.2.2 does not support the 3582
libraries. You can use drivers form the 5.1.8 release
instead. I'm not sure if this has the programmer's
blessing but it work for me on Windows 2003.

2003 has another device driver layer than 2000 but
I hope the steps below will help you anyway. 

You need to have the SAN set up (HBA and drivers etc.)
correctly. You should see your drives and the changer
in the device manager.

Install device drivers for the drives from the FTP-site.
You don't need to install the driver for the library.

Install TSM 5.2.0 and update to 5.2.2. I installed the
TSM device drivers as well. Downgrade to or install the
device drivers from a late 5.1.* version. I used a patch
for 5.1.8 and installed only the drivers during the setup.

TSM could access the library and the drives afterwards.
