Driver Requirements
-------------------

STORPORT DRIVERS ARE NOT SUPPORTED

  The IBM Tivoli Storage Manager device driver does not support Storport
  drivers for Host Bus Adapters on Windows 2003. ScsiPort drivers are required
  for the HBAs to which the devices controlled by the IBM Tivoli Storage
  Manager device driver are attached.

NON-TSM SPECIAL FILES MUST BE REMOVED ON LINUX

  On Linux, the IBM Tivoli Storage Manager device driver uses the TSM device
  special files only. Any other special files (eg. st1) associated with devices
  used by the IBM Tivoli Storage Manager server must be removed to prevent
  conflicts.
