# This is the file which defines the 3494 libraries and how they are
attached.
# The format of this file is:
#
# Library name address identifier <address2>
#
# Where library name is a symbolic name of the library, the address
# is a value which represents either a direct rs232 connection or an
# internet address of the Library Manager for a TCP/IP connection, and
# the identifier to be used in conjuction with the Library Manager. It
# is common practice to use the hostname of the machine for the identfier.
# The address2 field after the identifier is the second internet address
# for a 3494 HA (High Availability) library.
#
# Notes: There is a 32 character limit for symbolic names.
# There is an 8 character limit for the identifier.
# Any line beginning with # is treated as a comment.
#
# Example for rs232 connected library:
#
# 3494a /dev/tty0 myhost
#
# Example for TCP/IP connected library:
#
# 3494b 9.115.32.21 myhost
#
# Example for TCP/IP connected 3494 HA library:
#
# 3494c 9.115.64.15 myhost 9.115.64.16

It specifies that you need to restart the daemon after modifying the file.
The mtlib command is just another piece of software that goes through
the lmcpd daemon to access the library. The daemon references the
/etc/ibmatl.conf file when it starts.
