I am reading and posting via the web interface, so I don't always see the 
messages "real time".

I am trying to find my way with this Copy/Export business.   

It doesn't seem as though modifying virtual volumes to indicate anything makes 
sense, but I'm reserving judgement on that.  

I can see driving EJC for ejection of the physical volumes which are being 
exported, and possibly also either vaulting or some sort of update of the 
out-of-area status of a physical tape but I'm not as certain about that for 
virtual tapes.

Another question I have is just how important is knowing the 
virtual-to-exported-physical mapping in a TS7740 environment?  It's not like I 
can recover individual virtual volumes (that I know of) - at DR, I have to 
recover the TS7740 from zero, and recover it all, right?
