Is there a Linux for zSeries 3420 tape driver? We have an occasional
requirement to copy reels to cartridges. z/VM 5.1 is dropping support
3420 tape drives. I'm investigating whether 3420 tape drives could be
attached to a Linux guest as unsupported VM devices, and then use Linux
commands to copy the tape reels to tape cartridges. The IBM Linux tape
driver appears to only support 3480/3490 tape drives. My web searches
for a 3420 tape driver have failed.
