Some do remote mirroring of DASD. Or use virtual tape where the virtual tape device is either remote or can be remotely mirrored. For the truly unusual and cheap: MFNetDisk can emulate 3390 DASD on z/OS via a TCPIP connection to a server on a PC running MFNetDisk under either Linux or Windows.

Sergio, It is possible that an operator who is inexperienced with an ATL might insert volumes in to the station backwards. If that occurs then the volumes remain in the station and do not get loaded into the library. There can also be other reasons that volumes are returned to the station rather

I have observed that when a tape is loaded into the I/O station, upon trying to close the door, it will not close easily. Of course this may not stop some determined operator/whomever from closing the I/O station door. I have heard stories from CE's that, with MUCH effort, the door can be
