OAM library support

z/OS DFSMS Software Support for IBM System Storage TS1140, TS1130, and TS1120 Tape Drives (3592)
SC23-6854-00

OAM uses the concepts of system-managed storage, introduced by SMS, to manage, maintain, and verify tape volumes and tape libraries within a tape storage environment. This topic describes the OAM library support functions that have been changed for use with the 3592 Model E05 tape drives. The enhancements include support for a new recording format EFMT2 and support for two additional 3592 media types MEDIA9 and MEDIA10. Note that the new media types are only supported on z/OS V1R5 and above whereas the drive itself is supported on z/OS V1R4 and above. This topic also describes enhancements to the volume not in library installation exit (CBRUXVNL) to pass additional job-related information.
