Based on the information from http://www-306.ibm.com/software/sysmgmt/products/support/IBM_TSM_Supported_Devices_for_AIXHPSUNWIN.html, it states: "For IBM Tivoli Storage Manager version 5.1 and later, to use a library with greater than 3 drives or greater than 40 storage slots, IBM Tivoli Storage Manager Extended Edition is required."
Based on that it should be clear that you need the extended edition even if you only used 1 slot in the library. The option you can consider is to get a second small library, like the 3581.
