I had not been following this thread until now but... Several years ago I built two AntiSPAM/Virus gatways on DL380 G3's. Both had DLT's attached. At first these were attached via the 5i controller. Later after much hair pulling, I ended up adding in an Adaptec card for them. I don't know whya, but the DLT would just not work on the 5i's.
