Well, folks, I had promised an update a couple of weeks ago, but was delayed with non TSM things here and going back and forth with IBM/Tivoli on my PMR. I had a hard time getting answers, but finally got some.
As I had suspected, LTO3 volser is treated DIFFERENTLY than LTO1/LTO2! LTO3 ONLY uses 8 char volser on TSM, LTO1/2 can use 6 or 8! How about that, sports fans? IBM Technote 1217789, just released, explains this and has a table for LTO, 3592 and respective WORM classes, and the TSM Server platforms showing what you get depending on what you have. Also I noticed with my TSM 5.2.6.0 on AIX, if you use the Web Admin for DEF DEVCLASS or UPD DEVCLASS for LTO, the "Recording Format" pulldown does not have Ultrium3 or ULtrium3C as an option - bug. If you use the CLI, you can use those options. (I can see Andy Raibeck smilling!). A little more later after I do some testing. David B.
