Yes, there is a way to do this if you are a savvy programmer or you
implement the SNMP/TEC interface.  The programmers guide for the 3494 also
shows how to write a lmcpd program interface to accept unsolicited
conditions which could do lots of things.  I have wanted for a long time to
write this program but just have not had time.

Subject: 3494 on MVS vs AIX


When the 3494 I/O station is full of ejected tapes (with more to come), the
MVS console automatically gets a mesage "All convenience output stations in
library TRROBOT are full."  Is there a way for either AIX or a TSM server
running on AIX to detect the condition so a email or page could be sent to
the operator.  When running a checkout libvol of more tapes than the i/o
station holds on the tsm server running on aix, the checkout just waits
until the station has been cleared.  I assume it would timeout eventually.

AIX is v5 and TSM is 5.1.1.
