I installed a used TS3100 with a LTO5 FC drive and when it autoconfigured it shows a device type of 63A0-001 and not as a 3580-005 as I would expect. When we run a SAVLIB with DTACPR(*DEV) and COMPACT(*DEV), the output show no compression or compaction which is confirmed by the number of tapes used.

We have tried deleting devd and creating by hand but it continues to configure as a 63A0.

Any suggestions?

I have all PTFs listed on DeveloperWorks for LTO5 support.
Library and drive have updated firmware.

Thanks
