Jim,

I'm using a Luminex tape server with zVM 5.3 and I just used SPXTAPE to dump a user's RDR to tape.

I attached a Luminex drive to my userid as 181, did a tapeload command to mount a volume (I could have used the GUI to do that too), and used this version of the command:

spxtape dump 181 user xxxxxxxx rdr all rewind

You may just have to mount a volser before you start.

Subject: Luminex vtape


We have Luminex vtape. The Luminex code provides tape support emulating IBM 3590 drives with the actual hardware being on Sun dasd. Everything seems to work with the exception of SPXTAPE. Does anyone else have Luminex vtape? Has anyone found anything that does not work?
