We are looking to copy data off of 9840A tapes to 9840D tapes. There
are a limited number of free slots in our SL8500, so just letting them
wither and die is not an option. Neither is boxing them and mounting on
demand. Since there are a limited number of datasets to be stacked we need
a cost effective solution.
Does anyone know of a cheap or better yet free stacking mechanism
besides Iebgener?

So are you saying he should copy the tape datasets to dasd and then
migrate them with HSM?
More or less.
In fact the best way to use tapes is to avoid using them directly.
No DD statements with 100MB datasets. No stacking. No manual duplexing.
Simply keep data on DASD and migrate/backup them using HSM.
Then issue like 9840A->D migration will be piece of cake (recycling).
You will also get much better tape utilization, wihtout VSM.
Last but not least - it's free (assumed you already have HSM or FDR).
