Hello,

checking our library i get the following results:

lscfg -vl smc0
  DEVICE            LOCATION          DESCRIPTION

  smc0              20-60-00-0,1      IBM Magstar MP 3575 Library Medium
                                      Changer

        Manufacturer................IBM
        Machine Type and Model......03575L32
        Serial Number...............0000000xxxxx
        Device Specific.(FW)........2.19

lscfg -vl rmt0
  DEVICE            LOCATION          DESCRIPTION

  rmt0              20-60-00-0,0      IBM Magstar MP 3570 Library Tape
                                      Drive

        Manufacturer................IBM
        Machine Type and Model......03570C1A
        Serial Number...............0000000xxxxx
        Device Specific.(FW)........544D
        Loadable Microcode Level....A0B00E27

So i think the library should be ready for the C-Format XL tapes. But here is
what i get when trying to checkin such a tape:

05/03/01 14:07:31     ANR2017I Administrator A05413 issued command: CHECKIN libv
                       3575lib search=bulk status=scratch devtype=3570

                       ready.

                       3575LIB; 0 volume(s) found.

Has anyone an idea what the problem might be?

Thanks,
Gisbert
