What I want is an API so that we can get that sort of info back to the host

Is there a way to find out if your tapes are nearing their end-of-use? I

As noted in ADSM
The TS3500 internal web server provides some information about the
cartridges. Not sure what they really means.
It does tell you the number of read and write errors for both LTO and

How can I tell, either from TSM (which I doubt) or from 3584 hardware level
what the amount-of-times used/mounted is? Normally, between myself and

See the Ultrium
