The Tivoli Storage Manager server introduced Oracle StorageTek T10000D drive support in release 7.1 as documented within the Release Notes: http://pic.dhe.ibm.com/infocenter/tsminfo/v7r1/topic /com.ibm.itsm.srv.common.doc/relnote_devices710.html Additional information, including implementation command syntax, can be located within the following TechNote: http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=663&uid=swg21644182 The required T10000D and T10000D-C drive formats, however, are not documented in the 7.1 Tivoli Storage Manager server publications under the DEFINE DEVCLASS command syntax.

Initial Impact: Low Tivoli Storage Manager Versions Affected: All 7.1 Tivoli Storage Manager server users of Oracle T10000D drives.
