Hi Bo 1. The documentation is incorrect. The correct command should be "update path".
2. What kind of tape drive are you using? The fact you're using Gresham tells me you're probably using STK drives. Have you installed the correct tape drivers for your tape technology (e.g. 9840B/C, Ultrium or 9940A/B)? 3. Is your SAN correctly zoned? Do you have any unkown devices? I would probably need more information on how your solution is setup to be able to help you with the issue of the tapes not being seen by the operating system.

For example, the 5.2.2 Admin Guide for Windows on page 185 illustrates performing an "update path" to define the externalmanager, not "update library". Richard Sims
