Thanks! I actually found out that there were some minor problems with TSM ver 5.3.1.0 but were fixed in 5.3.1.1
Here's the email that was posted to this group on 04/08/05 by a TSM representative: APAR IC45703 resolves an issue where ACSLS libraries are unable to mount scratch volumes. ACLSL libraries will fail to mount scratch volumes, though private volumes can be successfully mounted. Any attempt to mount a scratch volume will fail with the following error: ANR1405W Scratch volume mount request denied - no scratch volume available. If your tape library is ACSLS, please wait to install 5.3.1.0 until 5.3.1.1 is available where this problem is corrected. We are in the process of refreshing the README on the FTP site indicating that this level should not be installed by customers using ACSLS libraries. We apologize for this inconvenience. Thanks again!

New in V5.3 is the ability to share the library between two or more TSM instances within TSM. Prior to V5.3 you had to purchase EDT to share drives in an STK library controlled by ACSLS. I haven't seen anything posted about not supporting ACSLS in V5.3.
