That is why I suggested later that if such a change were to be made, it should
be at a release boundary and the Conversion Guide should scream about it. Even
then, there would be those who missed noticing it until it bit the users.

The 3584 Tape library will *have to be* ESCON or FICON attached to the
mainframe to be usable with DFSMS/VM RMS and/or CA VM:Tape.
As was mentioned by others, CMS applications like DFSMS/VM RMS and CA
VM:Tape can not use tape drives that are attached to the mainframe via

A thought that may or not matter:

system can't be changed. Perhaps if the SE's are still OS/2 that would
