Good day!
Need help in checking my AIX 7.1 box.
After we have finished zoning our TS3200 and TS3310 tape libraries, we installed the Atape driver,
# lslpp -L |grep tape
Atape.driver 11.7.7.0 C F IBM AIX Enhanced Tape and
devices.fcp.tape.rte 7.1.3.15 C F FC SCSI Tape Device Software
devices.iscsi.tape.rte 7.1.0.0 C F iSCSI Tape Software
devices.scsi.tape.diag 7.1.1.15 C F SCSI Tape Device Diagnostics
devices.scsi.tape.rspc 7.1.0.0 C F RISC PC SCSI Tape Device
devices.scsi.tape.rte 7.1.3.0 C F SCSI Tape Device Software
After refresh of devices [ cfgmgr -v ], only the TS3200 drives could be seen.
Is there something that we might have missed?
# lsdev -Cc tape

rmt1 Available 04-00-01 Other FC SCSI Tape Drive

Note: tpautoconf is a Netbackup command 
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Was able to resolve the problem by installing an updated version of Atape driver from 11.7.7.0 to 12.6.7.0.
After cfgmgr -v , all drives including the robots were already discovered.
Thanks!
