For one of the DLm tape libraries and associated devices they are shared between two sysplexes with CA MIM (MIA) controlling tape allocations, so those are gen'd offline at IPL time and MIM puts them online when it "synchs". The MIM/MIA LPARs also have AUTOSWITCH=NO. No issues with either of those. Are you sure the library id and libport match what Dell/EMC set up?
