<=>Hi there:
<=>
<=>I am planning to use ADSM on AIX 4.1.4 on an R24 with a 3494 Tape Library.
<=>
<=>A couple of questions:
<=>
<=>1)  Can I request a specific tape to mount such that I can do read/writes
<=>independent of ADSM while ADSM is running using the same tape library?

Yes. there is a utility that allows you to request a tape to be mounted
(mtlib?)
<=>
<=>2)  Is this something that can be done through the ADSM APIs or do I have to
<=>talk to the tape library through some other (non ADSM) API?

mtlib is a cli program, but If I remember well, it is simply calling a
(non-ADSM) API.

<=>Thanks for your time :-)
