Tape Library showing up as Stand-Alone

I just installed a new HP StorgaeWork MSL4048 Tape Library to my backup server.  BackupExec sees the device as a stand alone tape drive even though its a robotic library with over 40 tapes installed and inventoried on the tape device.  Is there something that I have to do to force BackupExec to see this particular tape library as a library instead of a stand alone device?

Unless it is showing in Dev. Mgr. as two items, it won't work in BE...

In device manager you should have two devices showing - one for the autoloader, and one for the drive.
Your loader mechanism should have a lower SCSI ID than the tape drive.
