Maybe its because the DEVICE TYPE in the DEVICE CLASS and the DRIVE DEFINITION differ ( 4MM vs GENERICTAPE) ?

I have a bit of a problem, the scenario is as follows. We are running AIX 4.3.3 and have recently moved from ADSM 3.xx to TSM 4.2. Attached is a IBM 3583 Ultrium tape robot. The 3583 is working fine and I can do backups. For my database backups I used the internal 4 mm tape station in ADSM and thought I'd continue doing that in TSM (or is it better to use the 3583 LTO robot?). I have defined a device class for the 4mm and a Manual library and drive. How ever when I try to make a DB backup I get the error below, insufficient mount points. This worked fine in ADSM before on the same Unix box. I cant figure out why. The 4 mm was installed and defined before the TSM server was installed. Do I need to remove the device defenition in AIX and redefine it? Or is it simply an error in my setup? Anyone have any ideas? Below is my config. Error 01/18/02 10:19:29 ANR4571E Database backup/restore terminated - insufficient number of mount points available for removable media.
