Yes, it is knowledge in *current* documentation.
TS1170 is *very fresh* topic. Almost no IBM source mention it.
Even official PDF leaflet links to details on a page which not yet exists.
However I'm pretty sure the TS1170 will be supported by VTS.
BTW: few years ago Fujifilm and IBM informed they achieved 580 TB per
cart density.
It doesn't mean product or cart, it means just areal density.
Now we have "only" 50TB.

I think the latest drive supported for TS7700 attachment is still the
TS1160.

FYI IBM released new tape drive.
TS1170 with new media JF gives 50TB (150TB) per cart.
A previously, the only form of mainframe (FICON) attachment is TS7700
aka VTS.
AFAIK the speed is not increased - it is "only" 400MB/s
