Re: Tape unit in iSeries model 170

Cool idea, but it's not possible to put in some non-IBM, non-iSeries parts.
Even harddisks are only recognised by the hardware service manager, when
they have a special AS/400-iSeries microcode (=firmware).

HTH,
Philipp

Hi all,

I'm a newbe in the iSeries world, and need some help. In our 170 model machine, we've changed the tape unit with a dds-4 model coming from a HP machine. The unit is seen by the AS/400 as a 6382, which would be able to read/write on a maximum of 4Gb cartridges. How can I force the AS/400 to recognize the unit as a real DDS-4, capcable of Read/Wrinting 30/60Gb cartridges ?

We're at V5.1.

Any help would be appreciated,
