z/OS software support for the TS1140 tape drive

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

Use z/OS software with the TS1140 tape drive to protect your data with the IBM System Storage® family of tape media and the EFMT4 and EEFMT4 recording formats. Table 1 describes the software support changes for the new TS1140 tape drive.
Note: The software support changes described in z/OS software support for the encryption-capable TS1120 tape drive also apply to the TS1140.
Table 1. Components that provide software support for the TS1140 tape drive
Component Function
DFSMSdfp AMS AMS commands, CREATE LIBRARYENTRY, ALTER LIBRARYENTRY, CREATE VOLUMEENTRY, ALTER VOLUMEENTRY, DCOLLECT, and LISTCAT are changed to support the new EFMT4 and EEFMT4 recording technologies and the new MEDIA11, MEDIA12, and MEDIA13 media types. AMS allows the use of the new EFMT4 and EEFMT4 recording technologies and the use of the new MEDIA11, MEDIA12, and MEDIA13 media types as well as the printing and displaying of information about the recording technology and media type.
DFSMSdfp Device Services Device Services manages the IBM System Storage Tape System devices.
DFSMSdfp ISMF The ISMF Tape Library Application, Data Class Application, Mountable Tape Volume Application panels have been enhanced to support two new record formats (EFMT4 and EEFMT4) and three new media types (MEDIA11, MEDIA12 and MEDIA13).
DFSMSdfp NaviQuest NaviQuest sample jobs and CLISTs have been updated to support the new recording formats (EFMT4 and EEFMT4) and the new media types (MEDIA11, MEDIA12 and MEDIA13).
DFSMSdfp OAM OAM tape library support allows the use of the new recording formats (EFMT4 and EEFMT4) and the new media types (MEDIA11, MEDIA12 and MEDIA13) in the IBM 3584 Automated Tape library and in the manual tape library. OAM object tape support allows the use of TS1140 tape drives and media for object-related activity.
DFSMSdfp OCE/IFGOJES3 OCE/IFGOJES3 allows the use of the new EFMT4 and EEFMT4 recording technologies and use of the new MEDIA11, MEDIA12 and MEDIA13 media types.
DFSMSdfp SMS SMS allows the use of the new EFMT4 and EEFMT4 recording technologies and use of the new MEDIA11, MEDIA12 and MEDIA13 media types. You can specify a data class to request data encryption (EEFMT4) or non-encryption (EFMT4) with media types MEDIA9 through MEDIA13. EFMT4 (non-encryption) is the default recording technology for the TS1140.
DFSMSdss DFSMSdss ensures that encrypted data dumped to a TS1140 tape drive will not be doubly encrypted, unless the user makes specific arrangements for double-encryption.

DFSMSdss Stand Alone Restore will not read a dump data set that resides on an encrypted tape.

DFSMShsm DFSMShsm allows the use of TS1140 tape drives and media for all DFSMShsm tape related functions. The LIST TTOC SELECT parameters have been extended to take new values EFMT4 (or E4) and EEFMT4 (or EE4).
DFSMSrmm These DFSMSrmm functions have been enhanced to support the TS1140:
  • DFSMSrmm TSO subcommands now allow the use of the new EFMT4 and EEFMT4 recording technologies and the use of the new MEDIA11, MEDIA12 and MEDIA13 media types.
  • REXX variables of the TSO subcommand have been enhanced to support the TS1140
  • API structured field introducers have been enhanced to support the TS1140, including new compound SFI
DFSORT DFSORT works without change with the IBM® System Storage Tape System devices.
EREP EREP provides unique device type information for TS1140 tape drives when formatting LOGREC records.
z/OS Multiple Virtual Storage (MVS) Allocation MVS Allocation allows the use of the new EFMT4 and EEFMT4 recording technologies and the use of the new MEDIA11, MEDIA12 and MEDIA13 media types when using the Dynamic Allocation Text Unit DALINCHG. MVS allocation (starting with z/OS V1R12) also allows a 2-byte specification for the DALINCHG parameter input.
