9.1 and Windows 2003 with Dell PV-136T Tape Library

We have a SAN environment with two Dell PV-136T tape libaries (one is LTO1 and the other is LTO2). We recently introduced two new Windows 2003 servers into the mix, and when we install Veritas 9.1, it does not allow me to access the drives. The Medium Changer is recognized fine, but the drives themselves have an issue. I downloaded the latest driver set, but that does not seem to work. Windows does not like these Veritas drivers, and in turn, when i use the ones Windows likes, Veritas does not like them. Are there known issues with this setup?

Also, if necessary, would installations of Backup Exec 10.0 coexist in a healthy manner with the existing 9.1 installs? We are licensed for 10.0 as well, so if that was the fix for the Windows 2003 servers, that would be fine as well. Ideally though, we would like to use 9.1.

Hello,

As you already have a license for 10.0 ,upgrade the build to 10.0 5520 and then install the latest Veritas drivers and verify.
