The 3494 tracks where a tape is and TSM depends on the library manager
to do the right thing. While the 3584 knows which slot a tape is in (see
the 3584 library specialist), TSM also tracks the tape's location. With
a 3584, a TSM 'q libvol f=d' has the home element filled in with the
tape slot element number; with a 3494 the same command has the home
element field as blank.

I'm wondering if someone can tell me how these 2 libraries differ as
it
relates to how the library knows what slot a tape is in. I know in the
3494
there is a library manager but unless I've missed something I don't see
that
type of unit in a 3584. Does the TSM server keep this information local
to
the server?
