VAXstation 4000/VLC and Tape Drives

OK, I'm stumped here. I'm trying to get it so I once again have a VAX as
part of my cluster, and I'm wanting to have him be a Tape server with both
a 4mm and a TZ30 drive.

I've got the following setup

Drive SCSI ID
----------- ----------
2 GB HD 0
TZ30 3
CD-ROM 4
4mm 6

Here is what I see for tape drives:

$ sho dev mk

Device Device Error Volume Free
Trans Mnt
 Name Status Count Label Blocks
Count Cnt
$12$MKA300: (LNGTOM) Online 0
$


Where on earth is my 4mm. I can't see it from the ROM prompt either. Is
there something about the VLC that only lets you have a tape at SCSI ID #3?
IIRC, that's the standard DEC location for a tape drive.
