IBM SCSI Tape Drive, Medium Changer, and Library Device Drivers has the
info...
0190 is probably from your initial install of TSM
019A & 019C are your private & scratch categories (in HEX)
Now notice how IBM has a problem converting from decimal to hex !
Even though your numbers are just one apart within TSM, the library has them
two apart !
0000 null, not used
0001-FEFF general programming use
FFFF volser specific
FF00 insert
FF01-FF0F reserved
FF10 Eject
FF11 bulk eject
FF12-FFF8 reserved
FFF9 service volume
FFFA manual eject
FFFB purge volume
FFFD IBM 3590 cleaner volume
FFFE cleaner volume

James - Full details are in "IBM SCSI Tape Drive, Medium Changer, and
Library Device Drivers: Installation and User's Guide"
(GC35-0154). If you're unfamiliar with the "quick" output of the
command, you can add the verbose (-v) option, as in doing:
mtlib -l /dev/lmcp0 -vqI
which identifies each element of the output.
