IBM 3494

The silo management software for the IBM 3494 names devices with an eight-digit number to identify the 3590 drives in the silo. Use the IBM supplied mtlib command to determine the names of all the devices in the 3494:

# mtlib -l library-name -D

Either ask the silo administrator which device is reserved for Backup, or test to decide which silo drive name matches with each Solaris device name.
