None of these.  Install the latest one (D0IF_295) that fixes some nasty
problems especially if you are using ES-1000s.  D0IF_26E regresses a fix
that the previous firware had for ES-1000s.   There are also a lot fixes
related to bad tapes.  There is a change to improve cleaning cycle needs and
to FINALLY handle the LOCATING error when a tape is damaged on the
beginning, especially new ones.  We are putting this on in a few days.  It
is the generally available release to a patch level we needed to reintroduce
the fix for ES-1000s.

Subject: Firmware upgrade question


Hi,

Having a shared 3494 library with 11 3590E1A drives (7 SCSI + 4 fibre), we
were told by the CE to upgrade the firmware. We currently use DOIE_350 on
all drives. What would you recommend to install as a mandatory firmware
level (DOIF_26E, DOIA_572 or DOIB_91D) ?

NB : Library manager code level :526.05

Thanks for your answer,
Regards,
