Hi Ed,
That looks pretty much like what we have. The Library Manager as a device is, I think, a database and processor that runs the tape library. In practice, I think of it as the web interface that lets me control the tape library.

I am having some issues understanding the IBM numbers. Please check what I think these numbers are. 3584-L22 base frame is this just the rack to hold everything 3592-E05 tape drives these are the actual drive that reads the cartridge 3592-J70 Enterprise Tape Controller is the controller that connect the drives to the Ficon/Escon To the tape drives 3593-F05 Library Controller Frame This is the actual frame that holds the J70 and E05 inside the 3584-L22 frame 3593-L05 Library Manager not sure what this really does other than "Model L05 - single library manager. Maximum of 2 (redundancy only) per 3593 System" Am I correct on what I have?
