        That's interesting.  We also have a 3590 drive attached to two
        AS/400's.  However, the device is varied on at all times on both
        machines.  We switch the drive back and forth via a menu on the
LCD
        panel of the drive.

We too have a 3590 on two machines. We do not need manual
switching.

But one must be careful that only one of the machines
access the tape at one time. We had a problem with a backup
some time ago because of a ChkTap which was issued from the other
machine.

Rudi
