If you have a virtual library you more than likely have an

Why would you say that?
The last two shops I worked at did not.
We had a couple of non-VTS drives for external tapes, but none were
automated.
Apples and oranges.
If you have VTS then you have real tape drives is automated library as

well. Well, at least vast majority of shops (using VTS) do use VTS solutions made by IBM and STK - both are using real ATL as a backend. You can also have some stand-alone drives, but as an addition, completely unrelated to VTS. There are some niche VTS solutions where no real tape is required (required <> allowed).


Regarding to original topic - yes, it is feasible to move HSM data
from
3590 to VTS virt 3490E. The best method IMHO is recycling. Number of volumes probably will increase, but it depends on PERCENTVALID.

To clear up some possible confusion I seem to read: the TS7700 VTS
indeed has a automated tapelibrary in it, but it is entirely internal to
the TS7700 and not visible nor usable for z/OS. The TS7700 also has a
DS4800 inside, which z/OS will never see nor use either.

Agreed.
However - isn't it as previous 3494+VTS? I mean: you *can* have real ATL solely for VTS purposes or you can use natively as well; share ATL between VTS and MVS.
