We just purchased SUN/STK 9840D drives that can be GEN'ed as 3590; I was
told by the SUN/STK sales representative that  T10000 tape drives had to
be GEN'ed as 3592 which meant PTF's  amd PRE-Reqsfor our OS.
Better check this.

Subject: SUN/STK SL8500 ATL met STK 10000 drives

I received the following question this morning :

We are busy installing a SL8500 ATL with STK 10000 drives

TST1 *Control Unit List *                 Row 9 of 161

Command ===> _______________________________________________ Scroll ===>

CSR

Select one or more control units, then press Enter.  To add, use F11.

                            ---#---

/ CU   Type +        CUADD CSS MC  Serial-# + Description

_ 0600 3590 *0*     2       __________ STK T10K Cartridge - Driver 33

_ 0610 3590                          __________ STK T10K Cartridges

_ 0620 3590 *2*     2       __________ STK T10K Cartridge - Drive 35

_ 0630 3590 *3*     2       __________ STK T10K Cartridge - Drive 36

_ 0640 3590 *4*     2       __________ STK T10K Cartridge - Drive 49

_ 0650 3590 *5*     2       __________ STK T10K Cartridge - Drive 50

_ 0660 3590 * 6*     2       __________ STK T10K Cartridge - Drive 52

Only *0600* goes online (CUADD is 0) but if we use a Gen with no CUADD 
numbers, then all of the drives are online.


According to my understanding, we need a CUADD for every controller on 
the FICON


If we change the CUADD of 0600 to 1, then it also does not work.

We connect the FICON from the CPU, to a switch and all the control units

are on the other side of the switch
