Is it possible, for ADSM, to use a mount exit and external tape management
systems on platforms other than VM or MVS too ? Specifically I am interested
in AIX.

If you use a mount exit, you can issue whatever you want as a request to
the operator, as long at the drive is attached to ADSM R/O if the tape was
requested R/O. There is a sample DSMMOUNT EXEC in the ADMIN GUIDE that is
similar to what you need - Figure 15. You can change the MOUNT command to
issue whatever message your operators will understand and put in some code
to
issue the ATTACH to the server with R/O if the mountmode is R/O.
