I ran the ITDT tool and one drive is a ULT3580-TD1, the other is a
ULT3580-TD2??

That is seemingly odd. Over the life of the O/S support for many tape
drives was done via PTF so missing PTFs had that affect. However 3580
and Ultrium2 drives were supported LONG before V5R4 ever hit the
streets. The OTHER way that can be affected is if there is a prompt
control program running which looks to see what tape drives you have on
your system and only allows values for drives detected. Do you have an
Ultrium drive on one system but not the other?

select is *ULTRIUM2. On another machine the *ULTRIUM2 does not show up.
Any ideas. I have confirmed that the microcode levels are the same on
both tape drives.
