We will be migrating DFHSM 3590 native tapes from a 3494ATL/B18 Vts environment to a new IBM TS7700. The 3590's will be recycled via HSM onto virtual 3490E media type 2 volumes(4000MB) in the new VTS. My question is - Is this feasible to take 3590(10GB uncomressed tapes) compressed data tapes and move the data onto the smaller 3490E's? If my calculations are correct we will need 4 or 5 virtual volumes for each physical 3590 which means our TMC volume count will rise dramatically but I am more concerned about the impact to HSM and the CDS's because we will probably have more connected volume groups.
