Is there a manual or webpage somewhere that references all the types of hardware that will work under various versions of zLinux and zVM? Or could someone tell me where I could confirm that a Magstar 3590 model E11 standalone tape drive would work under zVM 5.3 and/or SLES9 SP3? We're new to the zVM/zLinux world-just finished with our POC and now trying to ready an LPAR for production use-and didn't realize till just recently that we'd need a tape drive to do a standalone dump of the zVM lpar. We have some no-longer-in-use 3590s available so thought we'd put them on the lpar as a temporary solution, but don't know how to ensure they're supported. Thanks!
