We still have some 3490 tape drives and I do remember using it sometime over the last 10 years for a tape drive issue with the 3490's - per the CE request. This is probably a good product to "sunset" and let users use it at their own risk. I definitely would not spend any dollars testing and upgrading it with each upgrade...

Hi John, We have a few 3490 c22 drives and a couple of 3590 Magstar, so we have the potential to run it. I have not actually run it from roughly 10 years.

Is anyone still using OLTEP...and if so...what for? Note 1: If you haven't been a sysprog for 20 years or more, my guess is that you probably don't know what it is--and will probably never need to, so don't worry. Note 2: Don't panic just yet.
