I can say that from an RS/6000 AIX server using a 3494-L12 (with 3590-B1A's) that the restore db works JUST FINE ! You don't have to do anything funny...

Has anyone on this list restored a db via a 3590 drive inside a 3494? Since the 3494 is not libtype=scsi, I am thinking that I will have to put my 3494 into pause or manual mode, and fake TSM into thinking the 3590 is standalone, and then manually insert the dbbackup volume into the correct drive. Has anyone done this?
