Can anyone confirm whether DLT4000 drives are supported for all
tape libraries that appear in the supported storage devices list
for AIX ? I can't see why it should be supported for one library
but not another but looking in the latest release notes ( v2r1m_f12.README )
under Addendum to Server Device Support, the ATL Odetics ACL 4/52 library
has only DLT 2000 marked as a supported drive whereas a TTi Q47 has both
DLT 2000 and DLT 4000 support.

Does anyone know when DLT7000 drives are going to be supported under
ADSM/AIX ? It was hinted back in January that it would be coming soon -
and I believe I have seen mention on this list of people actually using
them - but I see no reference to them in any release notes.
