Richard, the "From" is not applicable for all devices. Therefore, the question Sascha asked was asked for a reason. Some DLT, AIT and 8mm devices are no longer supported. However, if you look at them in the "Supported Devices List", you will get the notion that they are supported.
So the "Supported list" is mostly with the "From" statement, but in some scenarios, the stated version is the latest version that will work with the device in question. Sascha, sometimes there are other reasons why the device wont work. Thats why you should always check the patch information and the knowledge base for information regarding your device before down-grading the version of TSM you're running. In 90% of the scenarios when you have problem with a device, its due to a bug or issue with the device in the code of TSM, and is almost every time already registred as an APAR with IBM/Tivoli.
