the last 3 are state, class, type. values ??? State: I like 00 anything other then that is a problem... Class: Looks like 10 is "3590 1/2 inch cartridge tape" Type: Looks like 00 is "HPCT 320m nominal length" and 01 is "EHPCT extended length"

Now as you know the "mtlib" command is a command which uses the "atldd" AIX device driver to communicate with the IBM3494's database telling you which tapes are physically in the library. Now I understand the first field of this output is obviously the volser number of the tape and the second field is the category. I'm confused as to what the last three fields mean: "00", "10", "01". Any assistance as too what these fields indicate about a particular volume would be appreciated. Thanks!.
