Okay, this is what I have done so far.
Removed all veritas drivers and application.
Downloaded and installed the "original" IBM OEM Drivers for both autoloader and vxa tape drive. Verified that the library could be controlled from Removable storage and tried to perform a test-backup to verify communication, it did not work - timeout when mounting the media, but otherwize no issues shuffling the tapes around.
After a reboot, everything went fine, both backup and restore.
Next I installed Backup Exec 10d, deselected the use of Veritas Drivers and installed.
Upon next reboot, an error in the event log showed that the SCSI-changer did not load.
I then de-installed backup exec, re-installed backup exec, this time, without the robotic library support, and behold, i could perform a backup and successfull restore on the drive using backup exec, but of course no autoloader support.
I did get some storage configuration error, but a backup was successfull.
Then installing library/robotic support in veritas from add/remove programs, restart, and nothing is shown under tape library. Looking in the adamm.log, it reveals ERROR_INVALID_NAME in SCSI ID #0, this means that Veritas Cant control the autoloader, and looking in the removable storage, it has disabled the tape library. I have enabled it, and rebooted the machine, but nothing has changed.
No SCSICHANGER error, actually the service has not been installed, and still no tape library is showing up in devices/robotic library - only one tape.
Oh, i did install SP1, but same story, it just disabled the library again in removeable storage.
And I did read and follow the guidelines in http://seer.support.veritas.com/docs/255501.htm (How to troubleshoot issues with a Robotic Library or Tape Drive in Backup Exec 9.x and 10.x) but it did not help anything.
