Netbackup from Symantec would be TSM's major competitor. You could also look

I just upgraded to 5.4 over the weekend and ran into the same problem on

You can turn on Virtual IO from the web console which will place all
tapes placed in the IO door into the library. This worked great except
then we search=yes option did not work.
We use scripts to checkin and eject drmedia and turned off Virtual IO.
The scripts also automatically replies.
Can you talk to the drives using the IBMtape utilities from the OS? i.e.
You should be open the drive as a device and read the SN of the drive.

We switched from 8-3590E1A drives and the 3494 librar to 8-3592 drives
and a 3584 library and trimmed 6 hrs off backup times. We backup 1.3 tb
data per night with 90% going to disk pools and then off to tape. We
are also essentially getting the work done using four of the drives.
We have about 3tb on Celerra and backed up using CIFS shared out to two
windows servers and have each unix host backing up their own NFS. Slower
than I would like, but does give granularity to restore which was a
must. I also did not want to dedicate a tape drive.
