We have a 5.3.4.0 TSM server running under mainframe Linux. It will
be upgraded to 5.4.2.0 in the next few weeks. We currently have
3592J drives used for all primary tape storage pools and a few copy
pools. We have 3590 drives used for most of the copy pools. We are
preparing to order some TS1120 tape drives, which will be used for
all copy pools. All of the existing drives are in the same 3494 tape
library, and the TS1120 drives will be installed in this library.
The TS1120 drives will operate with application managed encryption.
We would like to use the higher density format available with the
TS1120. Will it be possible for the 3592J drives and the TS1120
drives to share a pool of scratch tapes?
