The 3592 tape drive went offline after a firmware update and had to restart

I have very limited knowledge but:
When two, or more, TS7700's are connected it is called a grid configuration.
The different members of a grid are connected using an IP network.
There is a policy that defines when a tape is copied.
You can copy a tape when it is closed, or at the end of every bloc
TS7700 can replicated data using so called grid, that means two TS7700 boxes
replicate data using gigabit ethernet (TCPIP) connection.

Are you asking about the software that runs the TS7720?
Or are you talking about software like RMM?
In the first case, a hardware PMR is probably the right group. However, have

Why would you like to do that? The TS7700 is structurally different from
the B20 in that it does much more present the grid as one entity and the
reasons for your B20 control will probably not be valid anymore for the

Hello Kees-san,
As far as I know, cleaner cartridges in TS3500 (3494) is NOT belong to
any Logical Lbrary of TS3500 which is used for TS7740 or IBM 3494/VTS.
As Wood-san mentioned, D SMS,LIBRARY(lib-name),DETAIL command for
