As your drive is not supported by TSM driver, you should *not* use it 
against the drive.

The problem is in the command "define path STEVEOIMAGE2_SERVER1 GENDRV_0.0.0 
srctype=server 
desttype=drive device=mt1.0.0.0  library=GENLIB1"
You should use "... device=\\.\Tape0 ..." instead.

When you try to address the drive as mt1.0.0.0 you trying to do via TSM 
device driver. If you do it addressing it as \\.\Tape0 it will be via 
native driver.
If there are no other drives, you can even avoid to install TSM device 
driver.

I don't know if that is because I'm not useing ibm's driver

I don't have any other programs on at the time and the segate backup 
software service

Steve,

In the TSM MC, under device information, were you able to see "tape0" in
the "Device Name" colume? Just wanna make sure that the device is
controlled by the native driver.

Steve,

The TSM device driver does not support drives with device ID "STT2A".
You will need the Windows native driver for this device.

Hunny Kershaw

Thanks for the reply,

I tried what you suggested, uninstalled the TSM device driver (via
add/remove
programs). Checked ms driver with backup utility from seagate, backup works
fine.

Installed TSM device driver from CD.
Went to device manager, update drivers -- windows could not find the ibm
device driver,
even had it scan the CD (there is no INF file for the adsmscsi.sys). So I
tried forcefully
installing it by modifying the winnt/inf/tape.inf file and put in an entry
for IBM and for the
admscsi.sys file. It seemed to install fine, rebooted, check the driver
property and it
seems fine, lists ibm driver as shown here

http://www.steveo.us/tivoli/4.jpg

But now when I go into TSM console and try to "start" the driver I get the
error

"Unable to start the TSM Device Driver.
Reason: The system cannot find the device specified."

as shown here

http://www.steveo.us/tivoli/5.jpg

I then tried in the driver properties, putting the device over to the left
column "Devices
controlled by TSM Device Driver", rebooted , but it put the device back to
the column
"Devices controlled by Native Device Drivers"

as shown here

http://www.steveo.us/tivoli/6.jpg

So how do I properly install this driver if there is no inf file for it.

I also see in the docs that in windows 2000 that the tsm device drivers are
not needed.


Thanks for any help
