Thanks for the duh suggestion. I know how to get into the CE mode to change the serial number and it would make life simpler. For this drive, since it was an upgrade, this will work. However, for new drives with maintenance, I think they would frown on changing the serial #. I still would like

Well, to speak on that as well, we just had 8 new drives put into one of the libraries managed by this library manager. We were told by TSM that you are not able to just define new drives and paths to TSM because TSM is not going to recognize the element numbers. We had to recycle the library

In fact we found out that for lto-3 and lto-4 tape drives in an IBM 3584 library, it is required that they change the serial number to match the old tape drive. Because IBM tracks the drives by serial number for maint contracts. This we found when the serial numbers that we send in for a maint
