Thanks, Christy; I appreciate it. We do have RMS available under VM.

1) What do I need to tell the z/OS guys? They're the ones that actually
"own" the hardware; do they need to do anything special to accommodate VM?
2) How do I configure the RMS part? I need to know the ATL serial
number, right, and the addresses of the (virtual) tape drives it
supports, correct?

Thanks again.
