Hello Lizette, Take a look at CA VTAPE: http://www.ca.com/files/DataSheets/brighstor_ca_vtape_r11-5_ds.pdf
Success story that discusses tape stacking: http://ca.com/files/SuccessStories/29989_county_el_paso_bvs.pdf It integrates nicely with CA1 as well. Bob Robert B.

We currently have Open Tech to stack virtual tapes on one physical 3590 tape (VDR). Are there any other equivilents or is Open Tech it. We are running z/OS V1.7 with DFSMShsm. We also have DFDSS and a couple of CA products (CA1). We need to compare the Open Tech process with other vendor(s) to ensure we have the right tool for the right function. Any ideas will be appreciated.
