Hi Gary I did as you suggested and commented out the entries in the /kernel/drv/st.conf file and now when I boot -r, I see just the 0 and 1 IBM entries that I wanted, so that's great news, many thanks. Now I just hope that it solves my strange little 'unable to write to filling tapes' problem.

If a tape is is marked READWRITE/READINLY, it doesn't become eligible for reclaimation until it is marked FULL. If a tape is marked OFFSITE, it becomes eligible for reclamation as soon as %reclaim is below the STGPOOL threshold. For most sites, this means tapes in the primary pool don't reclaim
