Re: Label length on 3584 Library

In TSM when it labels the tape it gives the volume a media type. See q
libv f=d. This is determined at the hardware level.
This defines to TSM the tape generation, i.e. 394=LTO2, 417=LTO3.
>From the q dr f=d, you can see what the drive hardware type can read and
write.
To configure the hardware-stg pool relationships correctly obviously the
device classes need to be configured with the format option set to the
associated data type i.e. for LTO3- ULTRIUM3C...
