it's been a while since I've used configured tape devices like this but
if I recall correctly you need to define the devices as shared and
define a CF structure to use AUTOSWAP , or a product like MIM to manage
the devices across multiple systems.
at my site using a virtual tape system we have defined 256 devices and
just manage the number of devices we need across 3 LPARS, all others
are varied offline at IPL time, so one range is online to LPAR1 then
then next range is varied online to LPAR2 and so on.
that for us was an easier option especially with the virtual tape system

That LPAR needs a VTD to satisfy a MOUNT request?
