Hello Everyone that has 3590 connections to their zSeries,

        We are looking into 3590 cartridge drives.  I am having some
issues understanding the IBM numbers.
Please check what I think these numbers are.

3584-L22                base frame
is this just the rack to hold everything
3592-E05                tape drives                             these
are the actual drive that reads the cartridge

3592-J70                Enterprise Tape Controller              is the
controller that connect the drives to the Ficon/Escon 
        
To the tape drives
3593-F05                Library Controller Frame                This is
the actual frame that holds the J70 and E05 inside the
        
3584-L22 frame

3593-L05                Library Manager                         not sure
what this really does other than
        
"Model L05 - single library manager. Maximum of 2 (redundancy only) per
3593 System"


Am I correct on what I have?
