Hi all,

We have a 3494 tape library with 3590 drives in it that is back-ending a 
3494-B20 virtual tape library.  We have about 17 TB of data sitting on physical 
3590 tapes in the 3494 as stacked logical volumes from the B20.  Does anybody 
know of any way of getting a list of the logical tapes on a stacked volume 
straight from z/OS?  I know I can go to the physical library and request a tape 
map, but was hoping there is a way to get this directly.  I dug through the 
books I know of and found nothing.

We're looking at the migration effort to get off the 3494 and would like to be 
able to mount a physical 3590 tape once and copy the entire physical tape 
contents back to the VTS for copying to the replacement device (whatever that 
ends up being)

Thanks,

Rex
