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.

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 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
