I borrowed a module from the current TCPMAINT 592 disk to do the wait for a specific device, in this case TAP1. The "WAITDEV TAP1" command works just
fine to wait for a drive to be attached to the server at address 0181. Th is works for external 3490's, VTS virtual 3490's and ATL 3590's. Chuckie may disaprove of using a working piece of code to solve a problem, but we wil l worry about Chuckie IF it ever breaks. To calm Chuckie down, I will look for Rich's real user code RXTAPINFO to see if I can replace IBM's code. /Tom Kern On Wed, 23 Jan 2008 11:20:23 -0500, Rich Greenberg <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wro te: >Many moons ago I wrote a progam called RXTAPINFO which did a sense to >the tape drive and returned (among other flags) a ready/notready >indication.
