TSM Server - Device configuration
In our case, some the existing drives and libraries were allocated for the new server while the production server was still running.
Commands in dsmadmc to determine which tape/library is free, and to check serial numbers:
q drive f=dOn-Line: Yes|No
Drive State: UNKNOWN|EMPTY <== 'EMPTY' is already in use...
Serial Number:
q pathOn-Line Yes|No
q library f=dShared: Yes|No <== should be shared if a new server wants to access it
Serial Number:
Serial numbers can be checked in AIX with the lscfg command (see below).

Then connect to the server with dsmc and input the password once (applies to 'passwordaccess generate').
