It sounds like the path of this thread is down the OS390/e390 operating
system. Or, does CA-1 run on other OS's?
We have a *SM server on OS390 that exists with CA-1 and all has worked fine
for years. However, our TSM server on AIX is another story. What do
organizations do with vaulting and slotting tapes in the vault from AIX
platforms??

Let me know how/when that works out. I will have to travel that same path
soon. Trying to work out an offsite handling procedure with CA1 and *SM.

We are setting up CA1 to work with the TMS and take care of this, all part
of MVS which I know nothing about but others on the list probably do. We
haven't been completely successful yet, still under construction, but it
should be finished soon....I hope, and so does the tape librarian....
