    We need to connect an LTO3 Tape Library to a pSeries. It's already connected to another library. I presume we will need to purchase HBA's, dual, and connect them to separate fibre switches for resiliance. Once connected, I believe many paths are presented and some work needs to be done to define the virtual paths / multipathing. What commands are used for this please and what is the best way to go about it. Also taking into consideration what drives will be in use, possibly not all of them. Anything at all you may know about this will be helpful, or even pointing me to relevant documentation as I cannot seem to find anything useful.

    Many thanks
