We have two of them.  One on a V5R1 machine and one on a V4R5 machine.
Both go down like a w!*%$ on a troop ship.  We have the CE in here on a
daily basis, literaly.
V4R5MACHINE: Got CPF5110-Equipment check when switching volumes. And other
messages like MCH1668.
V5R1MACHINE:  Got CPF4513-Timeout, MCH5204-Source/sink resource TAP03 not
available, MCH1668-System object TAP03 partially damaged, and more.
QSYSOPR on V5R1MACHINE had: CPI5922, CPF6797

And every 8 weeks we always apply the latest cum, and the latest group
ptf's for:  Hiper, Database, Backup, etc.

Counting the minutes until our 3581's come in.  When they do, give me a
jingle if you need 3570 tapes.
The 3581 has a higher capacity, but not the speed of the 3590.  And, you
can always count on IBM having something sexier in the works.
That 3590 is fast.  We changed a backup from a 25gb cartridge, (which is no
slouch) and we're impressed.  I have historical data that can track the
changes from an earlier cartridge to a 25gb, from a 25gb to 3590, and a few
others.  If anyone needs some real world comparisons for management buy in,
drop me a line.  I will tell you, that the 3590 needs horsepower to drive
it to full rate.  But we put it on a large bumblebee and are also
impressed.

Really?  We've had one for about a year now without any problems at all.
