Re: StorageTek libraries with IP interface for z/OS?

2007-01-24 Thread Jack Kelly
I just went through this endeavor, i.e. Timberwolf (9740) without 3x74. We're on Z/OS and STK came back against trying to use ACSLS and CSC but were willing to give us a deal on a SL8500, so I assume that implies that the SL8500 works on Z/OS? Jack Kelly LA Systems @ US Courts x 202-502-2390 -

We have a Storage Tek library that is shared between Unix and z/OS. The device controlling the library is a Sun server running a piece of software called ACSLS which receives commands over our IP network. The mainframe software component that issues the commands to ACSLS is called CSC.
