Hi all,
We have a 3494 tape library with 3590 drives in it that is back-ending a
3494-B20 virtual tape library. We have about 17 TB of data sitting on physical
3590 tapes in the 3494 as stacked logical volumes from the B20. Does anybody
know of any way of getting a list of the logical tapes on a stacked volume
straight from z/OS? I know I can go to the physical library and request a tape
map, but was hoping there is a way to get this directly. I dug through the
books I know of and found nothing.
We're looking at the migration effort to get off the 3494 and would like to be
able to mount a physical 3590 tape once and copy the entire physical tape
contents back to the VTS for copying to the replacement device (whatever that
ends up being)
Thanks,
Rex

Rex,
Both RMM and CA-1 should give you the list of stacked logicals on the
cart. Importing the stacked volume should propagate the logicals to the
VTS.
