Hi all

At present we are using an IBM 3494 library with two 3590H1A drives. So far
we are just using the standard 3590 tapes but are looking at adding some of
the extended capacity volumes. Does anyone know if I need to do anything to
the 3494 library for it to be able to check in extended capacity volumes or
will it just take them in as normal.

As far as I am aware the 3590 drives themselves will use the new volumes
happily and just fit as much data as they can on them.

Thanks in advance
