In regard to the type of device that is created for the VTL, would you
mind looking at its device description (DSPDEVD) and see what shows up in
the "Category of device" attribute?

I don't have a VTL, yet, but since they look like a regular tape media
library to the LPAR, my guess would be that their category of device would
be *MLB. That's the category of device for our TS3100's device description.
