When you say VTS, I assume you mean an IBM 3494 ... no, you can't.

virtual volumes are emulated to the extent that includes simulating

Ah, right. VTS, duh.
Suggestion: define
Our VTS is B20 , 3952 drives.
We use Bacula from about 1,5 year and it works fine. We tested backup to
disk and from disk to tape but still problem is amount of tapes that
autochanger have to use.
That why we would like to configure bigger tapes.
In z/VM can we emulate 3490e cartridges only?
Hello,
We use Bacula and VTS to make backups I wonder if we can configure in z/V

tape volumes greater than 830 MB. It look like that what I can define max
830 MB.

There's no limit in z/VM; the tape mount code we wrote writes until
physical EOV; you may need to define a new media type in Bacula to
